Crash patterns in Glasgow

Glasgow sits at the junction of Route 40 and Route 896, one of the busiest and most collision-prone intersections in New Castle County. Route 40 carries commercial and freight traffic east toward Bear and west toward the Maryland line. Route 896 runs north into Newark and the university area and south toward the canal. Route 72 adds a third feeder. The result is heavy turning volume crossing heavy through volume at speed.

Intersection collisions at a junction like this usually come down to signal phase and right of way, and the proof is signal timing data plus any camera coverage from the surrounding retail, both of which are held by third parties and both of which cycle. Route 40 west of here crosses into Maryland at Elkton, where any fault on your part can bar recovery entirely, so on this corridor the exact location of the impact matters more than almost anywhere else in the state. Glasgow claims are filed in the Superior Court for New Castle County.
