Intersection Accidents in West Virginia
Busy intersections, such as Oliver Street and MacCorkle Avenue SW, are frequent sites of traffic accidents due to the convergence of vehicles from multiple directions, reduced visibility, and increased opportunities for driver error. Accidents in these areas often lead to injuries that can disrupt daily life and result in unexpected medical expenses.
West Virginia’s fault-based insurance system allows injured parties to pursue compensation from at-fault drivers to cover medical bills, lost wages, and other damages. Consulting with professionals after an accident can help victims understand their rights and explore their recovery options.
