Dangerous Intersections to Avoid in Monroe County
by King Law
Driving can be one of the most dangerous activities a person will participate in during the course of their life. While collisions can be caused by a myriad of different factors – including speeding, driving while intoxicated, driving while distracted, and failing to yield the right of way – certain collisions are caused in full or in part by the road itself. Whether it be due to poor roadway maintenance, a lack of traffic signals, or blind curves, certain spots can be more prone to collisions than others.
