Explanation
A blind intersection is one where you cannot see for 100 feet in either direction during the last 100 feet before crossing, and there are no stop signs at any corner. In this situation, it is crucial to slow down to 15 mph or less because there might be other vehicles or pedestrians approaching or crossing the intersection that you cannot see. Slowing down will give you more time to react to any potential hazards and avoid a collision.
