In a shocking incident that underscores a troubling pattern of accidents, an SUV was sent careening into a home in Oakland County after a collision at the intersection of Hickory Ridge and Rose Center Roads. Local authorities were dispatched following the crash, capturing the moment on video which is now circulating on social media, raising alarm among residents.
The intersection has long been a source of concern for the community, with many residents citing limited visibility due to overgrown vegetation and faulting high-speed traffic as key contributors to the frequent accidents and near misses that occur there. The latest accident has reignited calls for immediate action to address these safety issues.
Community members and local business owners have expressed their frustration over repeated accidents and are now advocating for the installation of a four-way stop at the intersection as a critical step towards enhancing safety. “It’s not a matter of if, but when,” lamented one resident. “We’ve been pleading with the Oakland County Road Commission to take action for years.”
Despite the outcry from the community and multiple requests for intervention, efforts to implement changes at the intersection have remained stagnant. Local officials have acknowledged the concerns but cite budgetary constraints and prioritization of other projects as obstacles to making the necessary adjustments.
As the community awaits a response from the authorities, the crash serves as a stark reminder of the urgent need for improved safety measures in one of Oakland County’s most perilous intersections.
