Crashes on major interstates such as I-440 often lead to serious disruptions and injuries, particularly when they occur near heavily used exits. The incident near Exit 7 reflects the risks posed by ramp areas, where drivers must adjust speed quickly, merge into traffic, or navigate sudden stops. Even small errors in judgment at highway speeds can result in collisions requiring medical response.
Pulaski County is a central traffic hub, connecting commuters and commercial vehicles throughout the Little Rock metro area.
