Highway Safety and Preventing Multi-Vehicle Collisions
Multi-vehicle crashes on busy highways like MD-295 are often caused by sudden stops, close following distances, or inattentive driving. High traffic volumes near interchanges, such as I-195, increase the likelihood of collisions, and drivers must exercise heightened caution when lanes are merging or traffic is slowing.
Motorists should maintain safe following distances, reduce speed when approaching congested areas, and stay alert for emergency vehicles and lane closures. Prompt attention to traffic conditions can help prevent accidents and minimize injury severity.
For those involved in crashes, seeking immediate medical care is critical, even if injuries appear minor. Documenting the scene, collecting witness information, and obtaining official reports are essential for insurance claims or legal action. Individuals injured in multi-vehicle collisions may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages if negligence contributed to the incident.
