In Kingsport and across Tennessee, incidents reported as 10-46 typically involve at least one person needing medical care—and they often signal increased urgency for roadway clearing and scene management.
Crashes on busy commercial routes tend to involve rear-end collisions, side-swipes, or turn-related accidents caused by driver distraction, congestion, or failure to yield.
