What Should Drivers Know About Crashes at Highway Intersections?
Highway intersections can require drivers traveling in different directions to cross or merge through the same space. Differences in vehicle speed and direction can leave little time to react when two vehicles enter an intersection at the same time.
Drivers should approach intersections at a safe speed and remain alert for vehicles approaching from other directions. Checking traffic before proceeding can give you more time to recognize a potential hazard.
Seat belts provide important protection during a collision by helping keep occupants secured inside their vehicles. Airbags provide another layer of protection by cushioning occupants during sudden deceleration.
