Accident 1 - Left turns for vehicles in opposite lanes

 








*****************************************************************

Relevant stats: “Crash research and analysis of accident data have revealed that T-bone accidents represent 13 percent of all car accidents in the United States. Additionally, 18 percent of all fatal car accidents (in which one or more person is killed) are T-bone style collisions....According to the National Transportation Highway Safety Administration, about 8,000 people are killed annually in the United States in T-bone collisions. Side-impact collisions are the deadliest for children, and over the past 20 years, deaths caused by side-impact crashes have increased by 20 percent, from 31 percent to 51 percent due to increased travel speeds and heightened number of SUVs... Remember that oncoming traffic always has the right-of-way. Do not make a left turn unless oncoming traffic allows for plenty of space to turn. If you are trying to rush through oncoming traffic, you are not obeying the right-of-way and could potentially cause an accident. "Oncoming traffic" includes vehicles turning right....Traffic signals indicate right-of-way, always follow them but also pay attention to your surroundings. If your traffic signal is green, you have the right-of-way. But remember to watch out for pedestrians. Having a green light doesn't mean a driver can carelessly go through an intersection. Every driver has a duty of care to do what they can to avoid an accident....Always slow down or stop when you come to a "Yield" sign and only move on when moving traffic allows.... If two vehicles enter an intersection at the same time, the vehicle on the left must yield right-of-way to the vehicle on the right. The vehicle that entered the intersection first has the right-of-way if they arrived at the same time...” (“T-Bone Accident Statistics And Other Legal Information”, T-Bone Accident Statistics And Other Legal Information)
