Overnight Traffic Hazards in Rochester Increase Risk of Severe Crashes
Crashes occurring during the early morning hours, such as the one at Springfield Ave and N Goodman St, are often severe due to factors like limited visibility, driver fatigue, or impairment. These conditions frequently lead to high-impact collisions that require ALS-level medical intervention.
According to New York State traffic safety data, urban intersections are especially hazardous during late-night and early-morning hours, with a higher incidence of speeding and distraction-related crashes.
Drivers are urged to stay vigilant at all times, particularly when traveling during low-traffic hours. Reducing speed, staying alert, and avoiding distractions are key to preventing serious injury crashes.
