Highway Accidents in Kentucky
Highway accidents are common in Kentucky, especially on major routes like I-64, where high speeds, traffic congestion, and sudden lane changes can contribute to collisions. Accidents near interchanges and splits, such as the southern split, often occur when drivers make abrupt maneuvers or fail to adjust to changing traffic patterns.
Kentucky operates under a comparative fault system, which allows injured individuals to seek compensation even if they share some responsibility for the crash. Victims can pursue claims for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related damages.
If you or someone you know has been injured in a highway collision, it is crucial to seek immediate medical attention, document the accident scene, and consult with legal professionals to protect your rights and secure fair compensation.
