Car Accidents in Virginia
Highway accidents, especially on busy roadways like VA-28, pose serious risks to motorists. Congestion, high speeds, and merging traffic contribute to frequent crashes, many of which result in injuries requiring emergency medical attention. When lanes and shoulders are blocked due to accidents, the likelihood of secondary crashes increases, further endangering drivers and passengers.
Victims of injury crashes often face medical expenses, lost wages, and long-term recovery challenges. Seeking immediate medical attention and documenting the incident are crucial steps in the aftermath of a collision. Since Virginia follows an at-fault insurance system, injured individuals may be eligible to file claims for compensation against the responsible driver.
