Residential Crashes in Pima County
Crashes in residential zones like the one at S Hildreth Ave and W Drexel Rd are frequent across Pima County. These areas often present hidden hazards—limited visibility, high pedestrian activity, and vehicles entering or exiting driveways. While speeds are typically lower, injury accidents can still occur due to inattention or failure to follow traffic laws.
In the San Xavier District and similar neighborhoods, mornings are often a busy time with school drop-offs and local commutes. These conditions can lead to misjudged turns, sudden stops, or rear-end collisions, especially when drivers are in a rush or distracted.
