Intersection Dangers in North Toledo Neighborhoods
The area around Bennett Rd and W Northgate Pkwy sees a high volume of local traffic, including school buses, delivery trucks, and neighborhood commuters. Accidents at this intersection often result from reduced visibility or drivers rushing through yellow lights without caution.
Neighborhood intersections, though smaller in scale than downtown corridors, carry their own risks—especially during midday hours when roads are shared by both families and commercial traffic.
