In addition to high crash intersections, our attorneys are also asked when more car crashes occur.  Consider the following from the 2010 Michigan Traffic Crash Facts:

• More fatal crashes occurred between 3:00 and 5:59 PM than any other time period.
• More fatal crashes occurred on Friday than any other day.
• More fatal crashes occurred in August than any other month.
