Frequently Asked Questions
Why do multi-vehicle crashes happen?
They usually start when one driver brakes suddenly or misjudges traffic ahead, and following vehicles don't have enough space or time to stop, triggering a chain of collisions.
How can drivers avoid getting caught in one?
Leaving extra following distance, watching traffic several cars ahead, and slowing early when brake lights appear can help a driver react before a pile-up reaches them.
What should I do if I'm stopped near a crash on the road?
Remember to turn on hazard lights, stay in the vehicle if it's safe to do so, and move as far from traffic lanes as possible while waiting for responders to clear the scene.
Does low visibility make these crashes more likely?
Fog, glare, or low morning light can hide slowed or stopped traffic ahead until a driver is too close to stop safely, which is a common factor in chain-reaction crashes.
