Our thoughts are with the injured man as he recovers. Pedestrian Safety at Signalized Intersections. Turning movements at intersections like Maple Avenue and Tulare Avenue can pose risks. In Fresno, when injuries are reported, crews typically work to stabilize traffic and protect those at the scene. Pedestrians depend on crosswalks and traffic signals to cross busy streets safely. Even with these safeguards, collisions can still happen if drivers overlook a pedestrian crossing or if traffic conditions shift rapidly. Urban intersections often feature multiple lanes, turning vehicles, and inconsistent traffic speeds.
