Authorities from the Greece Police Department have identified several critical factors that contributed to the tragic two-vehicle crash at the intersection of Elmgrove Road and Deming Street. Preliminary investigations revealed that inclement weather conditions, combined with limited visibility due to heavy rainfall, significantly impaired the drivers’ ability to react timely. Additionally, witness accounts and traffic camera footage indicate that one of the vehicles failed to yield at the intersection, escalating the severity of the collision.

Key elements uncovered during the investigation include:

  • Reduced traction from wet road surfaces
  • Obscured traffic signals caused by overgrown vegetation
  • Excessive speed reported by witnesses
  • Delayed emergency response due to traffic congestion nearby
