Multi-vehicle crashes like this one can create dangerous situations. Here are a few common hazards:
- Chain-Reaction Collisions – When multiple vehicles are involved, one crash can quickly lead to others, making it difficult for drivers to avoid impact.
- Highway Speed Accidents – Collisions at high speeds often result in more severe injuries and significant vehicle damage.
- Reduced Visibility – Wrecked vehicles and debris can obstruct views, increasing the likelihood of secondary crashes.
