Construction sites in Miami are often dangerous areas for traffic accidents. These sites usually involve uneven road conditions, plenty of pedestrians and workers, trucks, equipment, and multiple cars. In cases where there are detours or extensive road work, construction sites can mean that drivers are distracted by the construction work going on and this can cause an accident. Traffic accidents, car accidents, pedestrian accidents, and truck accidents are all common in Miami construction sites for these reasons.
