I saw the aftermath of the accident last night. This is the 3rd accident I have seen at that intersection in just over a week. All 3 accidents on the southbound side at the right hand turn lane to Acton Lane. It’s just a bad intersection.
Sad for all involved and, prayerfully, they are on a road to full recovery.
But, lack of driving skills and defensive driving is the cause of most accidents. People need to pay attention.
I couldn’t agree with you more shannon. They See It On The Roads And Read About It In The Papers And The Tv News But Yet They Continue To Not Pay Attention. I Will Never End. I Don’t Call Them Accidents. I Call Them Crashes lol.
I go by there almost daily and the problem is the drivers turning right BOTH ways onto Acton Lane from 301 North & South. They don’t want to stop for oncoming drivers, so they don’t stop long enough to see if other drivers are coming across 301 from Acton Lane.
Always has been. Years ago, I witnessed a m/v accident involving a m/c. Car pulled right out in front of the motorcycle.
