What Should Drivers Know About Crashes Involving Entrapment?
Crashes involving entrapment can require specialized equipment and additional time for emergency crews to safely remove people from damaged vehicles. Drivers approaching an active crash scene should slow down and remain alert for emergency vehicles, responders, and changing traffic patterns. Giving crews enough space can help them work safely.
Motorists should avoid attempting to drive around barricades or through areas where emergency personnel are working. Sudden lane changes or stops can create additional hazards for other drivers. Following temporary traffic controls can also help keep the roadway clear for ambulances and rescue equipment.
Drivers can reduce the risk of serious crashes by maintaining a safe speed and remaining focused on the road. Seat belts should be worn by every occupant because they can help reduce injuries during a collision. Staying attentive at intersections and adjusting speed to traffic and road conditions are also important parts of crash prevention.
