Car Accidents in Tennessee
Car accidents occur frequently in Tennessee, especially on busy highways like I-440 and I-65, where heavy traffic and high speeds increase the risk of collisions. According to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security (TDSHS), thousands of crashes happen on the state’s interstates each year, with a significant portion leading to injuries or fatalities.
One of the primary causes of highway accidents is distracted driving, as motorists often engage in activities such as texting, adjusting in-car controls, or interacting with passengers instead of focusing on the road. Speeding also plays a significant role, particularly on high-speed interstates, where drivers may struggle to react in time to sudden stops or lane changes. Additionally, merging accidents are common at entry ramps like Nolensville Pike to I-65, where drivers may misjudge speed or fail to yield properly.
For individuals injured in a motor vehicle accident, seeking medical attention and understanding legal rights are crucial steps in the recovery process. Victims may be entitled to compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and other damages incurred due to the crash.
