Crashes on High-Speed Routes in Columbus
State Route 315 is a heavily traveled freeway through the heart of Columbus, connecting downtown to northern suburbs and intersecting with key commuter corridors. The area near mile marker 2 is especially active due to its proximity to medical facilities, campus traffic, and downtown business districts.
Injury crashes on high-speed routes like SR-315 are often more severe due to the velocity of impact and the volume of vehicles. Even a single-vehicle collision or minor multi-vehicle chain reaction can result in serious harm, particularly if seatbelt usage or spacing between vehicles is compromised.
Highway collisions may result from abrupt lane changes, merging conflicts, distracted driving, or weather conditions that reduce visibility and road grip. According to the Ohio Department of Transportation, crashes on state routes like 315 account for a significant portion of the injury and fatality totals in Franklin County each year.
When a crash occurs on a route as busy as SR-315, the aftermath can be overwhelming, from dealing with medical treatment and insurance claims to coordinating transportation and missed work.
