Car Accidents and Injury Risks in Tennessee
Monday night’s crash in Hermitage serves as another reminder of the potential dangers found even in neighborhood traffic zones. Jackson Pass and Andrew Jackson Pkwy intersect near residential and commercial areas, where both vehicle volume and driver distraction can play a role in accidents.
In Tennessee, data from the Department of Safety and Homeland Security reveals that tens of thousands of injury-related crashes occur annually. A significant number of these collisions happen at intersections, often due to driver inattention, speeding, or failure to yield the right of way. In 2024 alone, Davidson County recorded over 18,000 traffic collisions, with Hermitage accounting for a notable portion due to its dense traffic and suburban layout.
For those involved in injury accidents, taking the right steps immediately afterward is critical. This includes documenting the scene, seeking medical attention promptly—even for symptoms that seem minor—and following up with authorities as needed. Victims are also encouraged to understand their legal rights, especially when dealing with insurance companies who may offer low settlements or delay claims.
Accidents like this one near Jackson Pass and Andrew Jackson Pkwy underscore the importance of staying alert behind the wheel, particularly in high-traffic neighborhoods and intersections. Ongoing public awareness and infrastructure improvements remain essential in reducing these types of collisions.
