Interstate highways, such as I-93, are common locations for accidents due to high-speed travel, congestion, and frequent lane changes. Collisions on these roadways often result in injuries that range from minor to severe, sometimes requiring hospitalization and extensive medical care.
Many crashes on Massachusetts highways occur due to factors such as speeding, distracted driving, or sudden braking. In high-traffic areas like Dorchester, where multiple entrance and exit ramps intersect, drivers must remain alert and adjust their speed to roadway conditions.
