The Risks of Intersection Collisions in Lancaster
Intersections are among the most frequent locations for vehicle accidents, as multiple traffic movements converge, increasing the likelihood of crashes. In areas like Chesapeake St and S Ann St, factors such as distracted driving, failure to yield, or reduced visibility can contribute to collisions.
While some intersection crashes result in minor damage, others can lead to serious injuries, requiring immediate medical attention. Even low-speed collisions can cause whiplash, concussions, or other injuries that may not be immediately apparent.
For those injured in accidents, medical expenses, lost wages, and vehicle repairs can create financial challenges. Understanding legal options can help individuals recover compensation for damages and losses.
