Tennessee’s interstates, including I-65, see a high volume of daily traffic, making them hotspots for accidents. Speeding, distracted driving, and heavy congestion are among the most common causes of serious highway crashes. According to the Tennessee Department of Safety & Homeland Security, thousands of injury-related collisions occur annually on state highways, many leading to road closures and long delays.
