California’s highways, including I-880, experience heavy traffic volume daily, making them common locations for collisions. High speeds, lane merging, and stop-and-go traffic often contribute to accidents, particularly near busy exits such as Alvarado Blvd in Fremont.
Many highway crashes result from distracted driving, sudden lane changes, or drivers failing to account for slowed traffic ahead. The CHP urges motorists to maintain safe distances, stay alert, and follow posted speed limits to help reduce accident risks.
