Freeway Crashes and Injury Risks in the Bay Area
Sunday’s collision on I-880 near 66th Ave highlights the continued risk of injury-causing crashes along major Bay Area freeways. Interstate 880, one of the most heavily traveled corridors in Oakland, is frequently congested and often the site of multi-vehicle collisions during evening hours when commuter traffic, merging lanes, and reduced visibility come into play.
