Northern Virginia’s interstates—especially I-395—are known for high traffic density, complex merges, and rapid lane changes. These factors significantly increase the risk of multi-vehicle crashes, particularly during weekday afternoon hours when commuter traffic peaks.
Injury crashes involving several vehicles often result in extended closures and emergency response coordination. Victims of such incidents may suffer a range of injuries, including whiplash, fractures, or head trauma. The physical recovery process may be accompanied by emotional distress and financial concerns, particularly if the crash involves lost income or extended medical care.
