Major Intersection Crash Risks in Scottsbluff
The junction of Avenue B and US-26 is a well-traveled intersection that connects residential areas with Scottsbluff’s commercial and industrial zones. With consistent vehicle flow throughout the day, crashes at this location often occur during morning rush hours when traffic volumes are high and drivers may be in a hurry.
Two-vehicle accidents at intersections like this are commonly the result of left-turn errors, red-light violations, or distracted driving. Even moderate-speed impacts can lead to serious injuries—particularly when seat belts or airbags deploy with force.
