How Do Late-Night Pedestrian Crashes Happen in California Cities Like Stockton? Late-night pedestrian crashes in California cities often exhibit several shared traits. Poor visibility is a major factor, since street lighting can differ greatly between blocks, giving drivers less time to react to someone in the road. Pedestrians are harder to spot when they’re not wearing reflective gear or crossing in well-lit spots. In cities like Stockton, nighttime brings extra dangers from faster vehicle speeds and lighter traffic, which can foster a misleading sense of freedom on the road for drivers. Intersections located in commercial or industrial corridors are especially susceptible to these kinds of incidents.
