Interstate crashes, especially during high-traffic hours, often lead to significant delays and potential safety risks—major roadways like I-83 experience frequent accidents due to heavy congestion, high speeds, and sudden braking.
According to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, highway crashes are commonly caused by driver distraction, inclement weather, and lane-changing errors.
