Highway collisions, such as those on I-40, can lead to significant injuries due to high speeds and heavy traffic. Intersections and on-ramps, like those near N Harrison Ave, can be particularly dangerous as merging traffic and sudden lane changes increase the risk of crashes. In many cases, highway accidents result from driver inattention, following too closely, or failure to yield.
For victims of highway crashes, injuries can range from minor to severe, requiring medical treatment, rehabilitation, and time away from work. In North Carolina, those injured in collisions caused by another driver’s negligence may be eligible for compensation to help cover medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.
