Evidence that matters after a crash here
There are 8 rear-end records in this group. For a new crash, document the sequence of braking and impacts, whether a vehicle was pushed into another, and the damage to each vehicle. Photographs taken before repairs can help distinguish the initial impact from later contacts.
5 crashes were recorded in darkness. For an evening collision, photographs taken under comparable lighting may help explain visibility; keep the date and time. Historical darkness codes do not prove a streetlight defect or establish the lighting conditions on another date.
5 records carry a hit-and-run code. After a new hit-and-run, preserve partial plate information, vehicle descriptions, witness contacts, and the time and direction the vehicle left. Ask about nearby recordings promptly because retention periods vary.
Keep the report number, photographs, vehicle repair information, medical records, and a dated account of symptoms and work missed. Identify the exact crossing or offset location when requesting video; a request using only a long street name may miss the relevant camera. Avoid entering traffic to collect evidence.
Questions about this location
Does a history of crashes establish fault?
No. A new claim depends on the conduct and evidence in that crash. This frequency summary has no traffic-volume denominator and does not establish a roadway defect, negligence, or comparative fault.
Are these all accidents at this spot?
No. TIMS excludes property-damage-only crashes. Unreported events and records that could not be reliably assigned to this group are not counted. Conservative location grouping may omit spelling aliases or related records.
