Interstate Collisions in Indianapolis
I-465, the beltway encircling Indianapolis, sees some of the heaviest traffic flow in the region, carrying both commuter and commercial vehicles. With high volumes of traffic and speeds exceeding 65 mph, accidents on this route frequently result in injuries, especially during early morning or late-night hours when fatigue and reduced visibility are factors.
This particular crash near mile marker 52.5 demonstrates how quickly an incident can lead to injury and disruption on a major interstate. Even single-vehicle accidents at highway speeds can cause serious harm due to rollover risks, secondary collisions, and extended response times.
Victims of interstate crashes often face not just immediate medical needs but also challenges with recovery, including costly treatments, insurance claims, and potential loss of income.
