Risks at Interstate Interchanges in Franklin County
Crashes at interchanges like Cemetery Rd and I-270 S in Hilliard frequently occur due to high-speed merges, congestion, and sudden lane shifts. These complex roadway designs require constant attention and quick decision-making, especially during busy travel periods.
Injury accidents at these sites can range from rear-end impacts during stops to high-speed side collisions. Victims should prioritize medical evaluation even when injuries seem minor, as symptoms like back pain or head trauma may appear hours later.
To minimize risk, drivers approaching freeway interchanges should signal early, check blind spots thoroughly, and avoid distractions while navigating tight curves or merge zones.
