How Intersection Right-of-Way Errors Lead to Crashes
Many crashes at intersections happen when a driver misjudges right-of-way. Pulling into traffic without enough space can quickly lead to a collision, especially on highways where vehicles travel at higher speeds.
Even on dry roads, timing and visibility remain key factors. A driver may not accurately judge how fast another vehicle is approaching, increasing the risk of impact.
Intersections that connect local roads to major highways can be particularly challenging. Drivers must carefully assess gaps in traffic before entering or crossing to reduce the chance of a crash.
