According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, over 40,000 people were injured in traffic collisions across Los Angeles County in 2022 alone. Urban intersections, like Pacific Coast Hwy and S Western Ave, are particularly hazardous due to high traffic volume, distracted driving, and complex traffic patterns.
