Orlando Suburban Intersection Safety and Crash Trends
Bohannon Blvd and Wetherbee Rd is a junction that connects fast-growing residential developments to larger commercial corridors, and it has seen increased traffic flow in recent years. These areas—particularly early in the morning—can present unexpected hazards, as routine traffic patterns begin to pick up and driver alertness may be lower.
Orange County officials have identified certain local intersections as higher-risk zones for early-hour crashes, especially in areas where street lighting or signage may not yet match traffic volume.
Drivers should remain especially alert at intersections with mixed residential and commuter use. Slowing for full stops, checking both directions even with right-of-way, and watching for vehicles entering unexpectedly are all critical safety habits.
