Intersection Accidents in Columbus
Crashes at busy intersections like South Ohio Avenue and Oak Street are common due to the high volume of vehicles, sudden stops, and complex right-of-way rules. These areas often see collisions caused by distracted driving, failure to yield, or misjudged turns.
In many cases, T-bone or head-on collisions at intersections result in significant injuries, especially when vehicles travel at higher speeds. Investigators rely on traffic signals, witness statements, and vehicle damage analysis to determine fault in such accidents.
For those injured in car crashes, recovery can be challenging due to medical expenses, rehabilitation needs, and lost wages. Seeking guidance on available legal options can help accident victims navigate the claims process and secure compensation for their injuries and other damages.
