Highland sees its share of everyday traffic β and with that comes real consequences. In the most recent full year on record, the city logged 154 injury collisions, 241 people hurt, and 6 traffic deaths. Corridors like Baseline Street, Victoria Avenue, SR-210, and 9th Street carry heavy volume, and public records show crashes tend to cluster on Saturday afternoons between 3 and 5 p.m. Those numbers aren't a verdict on any road β they're simply a reflection of how much traffic moves through a growing community of nearly 55,000 people.
