What Should Drivers Know About Multi-Vehicle Crashes?
Multi-vehicle crashes can happen when one collision creates a chain reaction involving nearby vehicles. Drivers may have little time to respond when traffic suddenly slows, or another vehicle moves into their path.
Maintaining a safe following distance gives drivers more time to react to changing traffic conditions. Staying focused, obeying traffic signals, and adjusting speed for roadway conditions can also help reduce the risk of becoming involved in a multiple-vehicle collision.
