Multi-Vehicle Crashes in Wisconsin
Accidents involving multiple vehicles, like the one reported on W Hwy 81 and County Trunk T in Orfordville, pose a heightened risk for serious injury due to the chain-reaction nature of such incidents. The fact that three ambulances were requested speaks to the severity of this crash and the number of people affected.
