Collisions on smaller roads like Panther Dr can still result in significant injuries, especially when drivers are traveling too fast for neighborhood conditions or become distracted. Residential streets often present additional hazards such as parked cars, pedestrians, and limited visibility around curves or driveways.
West Virginia safety officials recommend reducing speed when driving through residential areas and remaining alert for sudden changes in the roadway environment. Even on familiar streets, conditions can change quickly, making it important for drivers to anticipate potential hazards.
