Why Do Intersections With State Highways Have More Crashes?
Roads where a state highway meets a local street typically carry a mix of higher-speed through traffic and vehicles turning or crossing at slower speeds. This speed difference can make it harder for drivers to judge gaps safely, especially during busier times of day.
Visibility and signal timing both play a role in how well these intersections function. A driver waiting to cross or turn onto a highway needs a clear view of oncoming traffic and enough time to safely complete the maneuver before another vehicle arrives.
Investigators typically look at each vehicle’s speed, position, and right-of-way when reviewing a crash at an intersection like this one. This kind of detail helps establish who had the right of way and whether visibility or timing contributed to how the crash occurred.
