How to Stay Safe on Phoenix Roads During Late-Night Hours
Accidents like the one on 19th Ave and Glendale Ave are a reminder of the importance of staying alert, even during the late-night hours. Factors such as speeding, impaired driving, and distractions are common causes of accidents during these times. Drivers are encouraged to reduce their speed and be extra cautious, especially when navigating through busy intersections or unfamiliar areas. Avoiding distractions, such as using mobile phones or adjusting in-car systems, can significantly reduce the risk of accidents.
If you are involved in a late-night crash, always seek immediate medical attention, even if you feel fine. Some injuries, such as internal damage or soft tissue injuries, may not show symptoms right away. Taking the necessary steps to document the accident scene, including taking photos, gathering witness contact information, and exchanging insurance details, is essential for the claims process and ensuring fair compensation.
