Lower Hudson Valley, NY (June 16, 2025) – A serious collision occurred just after midnight on Saturday along I-95 southbound in the Lower Hudson Valley region, resulting in injuries and blocking the right travel lane. The crash was reported at approximately 12:42 a.m. between Exit 15 (New Rochelle/The Bronx) and Exit 14 (Pelham Parkway), prompting a swift response from emergency crews.
At least one person was confirmed injured, though the full scope of injuries has not yet been released. Paramedics arrived on scene shortly after the crash to assess and treat the wounded before arranging further medical transport. The right lane remained closed for some time as first responders secured the area and managed cleanup operations.
I-95 is heavily trafficked even during overnight hours due to long-haul travel, commercial trucking, and late-night regional commutes. Crashes along this corridor often involve high speeds and limited visibility, both of which can increase the likelihood of serious injury.
State Police and local responders are conducting an ongoing investigation into the incident. It remains unclear whether driver fatigue, excessive speed, or other contributing factors played a role.
We send our best to those involved in the collision and wish all injured individuals a full and timely recovery.
I-95 Overnight Crash Hazards in the Hudson Valley
I-95 serves as a key north-south route through New York’s Lower Hudson Valley, accommodating a high volume of both passenger vehicles and freight carriers. Crashes on this stretch—especially in the hours after midnight—often result from reduced visibility, driver fatigue, or diminished traffic awareness.
Saturday morning’s injury crash between Exits 15 and 14 illustrates the dangers that can arise even when traffic appears light. A momentary lapse in attention, a mechanical failure, or a sudden lane change can lead to multi-vehicle collisions or roadside injuries. When lanes are blocked—such as the right lane in this case—it increases the danger to all drivers and can delay emergency medical response times.
Victims of highway collisions frequently face serious injuries that require hospitalization, time off work, and lengthy recovery. Navigating insurance issues and determining liability can also be difficult, especially when multiple vehicles or late-night driving conditions are involved.
