Dangers of Multi-Vehicle Crashes on South Carolina Parkways
Collisions involving multiple vehicles, like the one on Robert M. Grissom Pkwy, are among the most dangerous and disruptive types of roadway incidents. When crashes involve ejections, the potential for life-threatening injuries increases dramatically. These situations often result from high speeds, sudden stops, or chain-reaction impacts—common factors on major roadways like Carolina Bays Pkwy.
South Carolina’s roadways, particularly in areas near Myrtle Beach, are known for seasonal traffic fluctuations and congested corridors, especially during summer months. According to the South Carolina Department of Public Safety, multi-vehicle collisions have been on the rise, often influenced by distracted driving, aggressive lane changes, or dense tourist traffic.
After a crash of this nature, injured parties may face long recovery periods, costly medical care, and complex insurance claims. Being informed about your rights and promptly documenting the crash scene and injuries can significantly impact the outcome of your recovery and legal options.
