What Increases the Risk of Pedestrian Crashes at Busy Intersections
Intersections can bring together vehicles, pedestrians, and turning traffic in a small area. This can create multiple points where conflicts may occur.
Drivers may be focused on signals or other vehicles and fail to notice someone crossing. Pedestrians may also enter crosswalks when visibility is limited.
Staying alert and reducing speed near intersections can help lower the risk of these types of crashes.
