Multi-Vehicle Accidents in Virginia
Multi-vehicle accidents, especially on high-traffic roadways like I-64, can lead to serious injuries and major delays. Congested highways, sudden braking, and high speeds often contribute to these chain-reaction crashes, making them especially dangerous for those involved. When multiple vehicles are impacted, victims may face extensive medical expenses, lost wages, and long-term recovery challenges.
Virginia follows an at-fault insurance system, meaning injured victims may be eligible to seek compensation from the responsible driver(s). Establishing liability in multi-car collisions can be complex, as multiple factors, such as distracted driving, speeding, or adverse road conditions, may contribute to the crash.
