What is a run-on sentence?

• In the English grammar, a run-on sentence can be described as a sentence in which there is no proper punctuation in between independent clauses. We can say that the clauses are connected in a wrong way.
• For example, in the sentence mentioned in the question 'the busy intersection has been a safety concern ever since the drugstore was built on the corner' and 'development has increased traffic and it also increased pedestrian crossings both by 50 percent' are two different sentences which are connected in an improper way.
