Confidence in this safety review is low because crash pattern changed: same_times since 2015-2018. The screening identified 94 observed crashes at this location. Distinctive crash analysis indicates that rear-end crashes are elevated, accounting for 80 events compared to 61 expected at similar corners. The imagery shows the intersection is signalized, while FDOT's road records document the roadway characteristics. Dedicated left-turn lanes serve as the recommended countermeasure based on FHWA safety evaluations for signalized intersections, providing substantial reductions in total crashes across similar facilities.

Rear-end. Rear-end collisions are distinctive at this location, with 80 crashes observed compared to 61 expected at similar corners. The imagery shows the intersection is signalized. FDOT's road records indicate a speed limit 35 mph and up to 6 lanes.
