About Intersection Accidents
Intersection accidents account for the majority of pedestrian crashes. These occur when drivers run red lights, fail to yield on right turns, or ignore pedestrians in crosswalks. Signal timing, driver distraction, and failure to check for pedestrians before turning are common causes. Modern traffic cameras at intersections often capture these accidents, providing crucial evidence.
