Frequently Asked Questions
What typically causes multi-vehicle pile-ups like this one?
Chain-reaction crashes usually start when one vehicle slows or stops suddenly and following drivers cannot react in time, especially in heavy freeway traffic where following distances are short.
Why do these chain-reaction crashes happen on freeways?
Dense traffic, speed differences between lanes, and reduced visibility from congestion or weather can all contribute to a single incident drawing in several more vehicles before drivers can slow down.
How can drivers stay safe if they're stopped near a freeway crash?
Turn on hazard lights, stay inside the vehicle if it's safe to do so, and move as far from traffic lanes as possible while waiting for emergency crews or tow services to clear the scene.
What should I do if I'm approaching a crash scene on the highway?
Slow down well before reaching the blocked lanes, watch for emergency vehicles and personnel on the roadway, and merge early when lanes are closed to avoid late, last-second lane changes.
