What Can Lead to Multi-Vehicle Crashes at Intersections?
Intersections can bring several vehicles together as drivers turn, change lanes, or proceed through traffic signals. A sudden stop or delayed reaction can cause one vehicle to strike another, creating a chain of impacts involving additional vehicles.
Drivers can reduce the risk of intersection crashes by maintaining a safe following distance and watching traffic several vehicles ahead. Staying alert to signals, turning vehicles, and sudden changes in traffic can also give drivers more time to react.
