What Should Drivers Know About Crashes at Intersections?
Intersections can be challenging because vehicles traveling in different directions must share the same space. Drivers should slow down when approaching an intersection and watch for vehicles entering from side streets or changing lanes.
Clear visibility is especially helpful. Parked vehicles, large trucks, vegetation, and other obstructions can make it harder to see approaching traffic. Drivers should also avoid distractions and keep enough distance from vehicles ahead to allow time for sudden stops.
At signalized intersections, motorists should follow traffic lights and signs rather than assuming another driver will yield. Turning drivers should check carefully for vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians before proceeding. These basic precautions can reduce the likelihood of a serious roadway accident.
