What Can Increase the Risk of Highway Crashes?
Highway crashes can occur when drivers fail to recognize changing traffic conditions or leave too little space to react. Sudden lane changes, distracted driving, following too closely, and excessive speed can increase the likelihood of a collision.
Interchanges and highway exits can create additional challenges because vehicles may merge, slow, or change lanes within a limited area. Drivers should monitor surrounding traffic and anticipate movements from vehicles entering or leaving the roadway.
Maintaining a safe following distance gives motorists more time to brake when traffic slows unexpectedly. Drivers should also check their mirrors and blind spots before changing lanes and avoid distractions that take their attention off the roadway.
