Toledo Intersections Like Dorr & Lyndon Prone to Injury Collisions
The intersection of Dorr St and Lyndon Ave is a known urban crossroad that sees both steady traffic and pedestrian activity. In these mid-density areas, crashes can occur due to a combination of quick stops, obstructed views, or distracted driving.
Injury collisions at intersections remain among the most common and dangerous crash types in Ohio. Often occurring at lower speeds than highway accidents, they still pose a high risk of bodily harm—especially in side-impact scenarios where vehicle occupants are more exposed.
