Over 9,210 Americans died in 2003 after being involved in intersection related accidents. In the U.S. approximately one third of all traffic accidents take place at intersections, with almost 3 million intersection related accidents occurring annually. As a result, intersections are considered to be one of the most unsafe locations on the road because of the high risk for accidents when drivers change lanes, make turns, stop suddenly, or change their speed while in the intersection.
In a recent study of dangerous intersections, it was determined that the following Pennsylvania intersections were among the most dangerous:
- Red Lion Road and Roosevelt Boulevard (Philadelphia)
- Grant Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard (Philadelphia)
- Route 63 and Route 309 (Montgomeryville)
- US 202 and Route 73 (Blue Bell)
Although some intersection accidents are the result of negligent drivers, some of these accidents occur for other reasons, such as:
- Defective road design
- Broken pavement or debris on the road
- Improperly placed traffic signs
- Poorly timed traffic signals
- Damaged traffic signs
Victims of intersection accidents may suffer from a variety of serious injuries, especially pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists who have very limited protection. Intersection accident injuries may be very painful, and depending upon the type and location of the injury, may require expensive long-term medical treatment. As an auto accident victim, you should hire aggressive legal representation immediately following the accident to ensure that your rights are protected.
At Reiff & Bily, our Philadelphia traffic accident lawyers will hold the negligent party responsible for the injuries and vehicle damage, if any, that they caused. We will thoroughly investigate the accident, and if necessary we will hire auto accident Reconstructionists and other expert witnesses to help prove the case and recover the monetary compensation that you deserve.
