Interstate Accidents in Florida
Interstate accidents, such as the one that occurred today on I-95 Northbound at the Broward Blvd entrance in Fort Lauderdale, highlight the dangers associated with high-speed highway travel. Merging lanes and entrance ramps are particularly hazardous areas due to sudden speed changes, congested traffic, and drivers attempting to navigate complex interchanges.
Florida’s major highways, especially in metropolitan areas like Fort Lauderdale, see a high volume of daily traffic, which increases the likelihood of accidents. Common causes include distracted driving, speeding, aggressive lane changes, and unfamiliarity with local traffic patterns. Entrance ramps, like the one involved in today’s crash, pose added risks as vehicles accelerate to merge with fast-moving highway traffic.
