Prince William County, VA (March 12, 2025) – A tractor-trailer crash with injuries occurred on I-95 southbound at VA-619 (Exit 150), leading to a prolonged lane closure and significant traffic delays. The accident, which took place overnight, left one left travel lane blocked, while traffic continued to pass through the two right lanes.
Authorities have not yet released details on the number of injured individuals or the severity of their conditions. Emergency crews responded to the scene to provide medical assistance and manage the wreckage. Due to the extended closure, congestion stretched back beyond VA-234, impacting travel throughout the area.
Law enforcement continues to investigate the cause of the crash, which may have involved factors such as driver fatigue, inclement weather, or mechanical failure. Cleanup efforts are ongoing, and drivers are advised to seek alternate routes where possible.
Our thoughts are with those injured, and we hope for their full recovery.
Tractor-Trailer Crashes in Virginia
Tractor-trailer accidents, particularly on major highways like I-95, often lead to severe injuries, significant roadway disruptions, and prolonged delays. Due to their massive size and weight, commercial trucks pose a high risk of injury and damage in collisions, especially on heavily traveled interstate routes.
Factors such as driver fatigue, high speeds, and shifting cargo loads can contribute to these crashes. When lanes are blocked for extended periods, secondary accidents may also occur due to slowed or stopped traffic.
Victims of tractor-trailer crashes may face significant medical expenses, lost wages, and long-term recovery challenges. Understanding legal rights and seeking professional guidance can be essential for those looking to recover compensation for their damages.
