Safety First: Preventing Roadway Accidents

While not all accidents can be prevented, many can be avoided through mindful driving and adherence to traffic laws. Intersections like Ophir and Lower Wyandotte roads can be high-risk zones—especially during morning hours when visibility may be compromised and commuter traffic increases. Drivers are encouraged to remain alert, minimize distractions, and reduce speed in residential or less-monitored rural areas. Practicing defensive driving and staying aware of your surroundings can significantly lower the risk of collision and protect everyone on the road.
