Crossville, TN (November 17, 2020) A car crash occurred on the afternoon of November 17th at the intersection of Braun and Webb Avenue in Crossville. Motorists who are passing through the area are advised to exercise caution. Additional details about the collision including whether anyone was injured or killed, the names of the parties involved, how many vehicles were involved, the extent of property damage, and the cause of the collision are still under investigation.

The Federal Highway Administration reports that over 50 percent of the combined crashes involving fatalities and injuries occur at intersections. Driver negligence is one of the most common elements in intersection accidents. Drivers frequently underestimate the time needed to cross the intersection and then in a last minute rush decide to try to beat the light. Other times, drivers roll through stops and continue through an intersection when it is not actually safe to do so. Design defects or maintenance issues can also contribute to intersection accidents and can include things like inadequately marked lanes, missing or insufficient signage obstructed signs, defective traffic lights, potholes, inadequate lighting, or poorly maintained roads.
