This course highlights the principles and practices drivers must consider for safely navigating through various types of intersections and examines the potential risks associated with the operation of vehicles at intersections. The course describes best practices for intersection safety and encourages the adoption of key safety practices to reduce vehicle-related crashes at intersections.
