Dangers of Multi-Lane Highway Crashes in Ohio
High-speed highways like I-275 are prone to accidents that can cause full road closures, particularly in areas with heavy commuter traffic. Sudden stops, distracted driving, and merging vehicles often contribute to these types of collisions.
To reduce the risk of highway crashes, drivers should:
- Stay alert for sudden slowdowns and lane closures
- Maintain a safe following distance to allow reaction time
- Avoid distractions and stay focused on traffic conditions
- Follow detour instructions when roadblocks occur
