What Should Drivers Know About Crashes Near Highway Interchanges?
Highway interchanges bring together vehicles traveling at different speeds and directions. Drivers entering or leaving an interstate must watch for lane changes, merging traffic, and vehicles approaching from behind.
Maintaining a safe following distance gives drivers more time to react when traffic slows suddenly. Drivers should also check mirrors and blind spots before changing lanes or merging.
Poor visibility, congestion, and sudden stops can increase the risk of a collision near an interchange. Staying focused and adjusting speed to traffic conditions can help reduce these risks.
