Whether you live on the islands full time or are one of tens of thousands of tourists who plan on visiting Hawaii this year, you will no doubt travel by vehicle while you're here at some point. Whether you're driving or riding as a passenger, there are several things you can at intersections to help reduce the chances of collision. Intersections happen to be high-risk areas, and the more you know about how to avoid accidents, the better.

Yes, you might be alert and cautious as you approach a crossroads; however, if a nearby motorist is not, there could be trouble. Many fatal collisions occur at intersections, and driver negligence is often the cause.
