Crashes on high-traffic roadways like Grand Central Parkway are common due to factors such as speeding, congestion, distracted driving, and sudden lane changes. Highway collisions can result in significant injuries, especially when multiple vehicles are involved or when traffic conditions lead to secondary crashes.
New York’s no-fault insurance system ensures that injured individuals receive medical coverage regardless of fault. However, in cases of severe injuries, victims may need to pursue additional compensation for medical bills, rehabilitation, and lost income.
