NY Intersection Accident Lawyers

Intersections are often considered to be one of the most dangerous areas of the road. Traffic lanes crossing, vehicles turning, and drivers changing speed or stopping at signals are just a few examples of why many motor vehicle accidents occur at intersections. In fact, the Driving Institute of America states that over 40% of all car accident fatalities involved drivers either failing to yield the right of way, driving through a stop sign, or ignoring a traffic light. These are all intersection accidents!

One-third of all crashes occur at intersections.

All intersection accidents are not the fault of the drivers involved. In some cases, there may be defects in the design of the roadways or in the construction of the road. Roads may not be designed properly to allow for adequate lines of sight or posted speed limits. The traffic signals may have been improperly timed, or they may have malfunctioned. Other defects on our roadways may be improperly placed stop signs, yield signs, etc., or the existing traffic signs may be faded or damaged.
