What is a common cause of accidents at intersections?

Accidents at intersections often occur due to improper signaling or failure to stop. This behavior can lead to collisions because drivers may not be aware of each other's intentions. For example, if a driver fails to signal when turning or changing lanes, other drivers and pedestrians may not anticipate their actions, resulting in dangerous situations. Similarly, not stopping at stop signs or red lights can lead to severe accidents since vehicles may collide at high speeds without warning. Proper signaling and adhering to traffic signals are crucial for maintaining order and safety in an intersection, which is often a point of high traffic and potential conflict among vehicles and pedestrians.
