The Risk of Intersection Collisions in New York
Collisions at intersections are common in busy urban areas like Queens, where multiple lanes of traffic converge, and visibility can be limited. Accidents often occur when drivers fail to yield the right-of-way, attempt unsafe turns, or misjudge the timing of oncoming traffic.
In locations such as Myrtle Ave and 69th Pl, where traffic volume is high, distractions, speeding, and failure to obey traffic signals can increase the likelihood of a crash. Drivers navigating intersections must remain cautious, reduce speed when approaching cross streets, and always check for oncoming traffic before making turns.
Those injured in intersection crashes often suffer whiplash, broken bones, or head injuries due to the force of impact. Victims may have legal options to seek compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other financial burdens resulting from the accident.
