Intersection Accidents in Missouri
Crashes at intersections and roadway crossings are a common occurrence in Missouri, often due to right-of-way misunderstandings, driver distraction, or misjudgments in timing. When one vehicle moves into the path of another, the results can be severe, particularly for older vehicles that may lack modern safety features.
Missouri drivers are urged to exercise caution at intersections, ensuring they have a clear and safe path before proceeding. Visibility, road conditions, and driver awareness all play crucial roles in preventing these types of accidents.
