High-speed roadways like I-70 pose an increased risk for serious collisions, particularly near major exits and interchanges. Accidents in these areas are often caused by factors such as speeding, driver distraction, tailgating, and lane changes without proper signaling.
Even when lanes remain open, highway crashes can cause significant slowdowns and pose hazards for other drivers. Officials encourage motorists to remain alert, maintain safe following distances, and avoid distractions to help reduce accident risks.
