West Palm Beach Florida Intersection an Accident Waiting to Happen
People who visit West Palm Beach, Florida are typically struck by its waterfront views and elegant, Old World charm. They just might want to avoid a certain intersection to avoid being struck by another motorist.
According to a local news report, residents are making noise about a certain intersection being notorious for West Palm Beach car accidents and near misses. Residents say that the intersection of Forest Hill Boulevard and Kudza Road is particularly dangerous, despite it being well lit and having marked crosswalks -- and a crossing guard.
One concerned father told the press that in the year his family has lived near this West Palm Beach, Fla., intersection -- he often hears brakes screeching and has known of several motor vehicle accidents. These include a serious traffic pedestrian accident involving his own son. The boy, who was crossing the intersection for the school bus, was struck by a vehicle and hospitalized in the Delray Beach Medical Center Trauma Unit for a week.
A West Palm Beach accident injury lawyer may work with families in cases where negligent or reckless driving led to injury or death.
Forest Hill Blvd and Kudza Rd was the same West Palm Beach, Florida locale where in January, a drunk driver hit a van and caused a pile-up car accident, killing one young child.
