What Are the Leading Causes of Interstate Accidents Around Hagerstown?

Interstate accidents are a concern for commuters in Hagerstown. As a resident, understanding the causes of these incidents is crucial for implementing effective preventive measures and reducing your chances of a highway wreck.

However, you can only do so much to prevent road accidents, considering you share the road with other users. If you get involved in a car crash, I can help you seek the compensation you deserve. Being a Hagerstown resident, I drive on the same roads and highways as you and know the area like the back of my hand.

Interstate Accidents Around Hagerstown

Interstates 70 and 81, which intersect just outside the southwest side of Hagerstown, bring about certain risks due to:

  • High and diverse traffic volumes during peak travel times
  • Diverse road conditions that lead to congestion
  • The substantial presence of long-haul trucks that can cause a highway wreck

Additionally, U.S. Route 40 presents drivers with urban stretches and rural landscapes. Adapting driving techniques to the changing environment is key to a safe and enjoyable trip.

Running parallel to I-81, U.S. Route 11 complements the interstate network, providing an alternative route for drivers. It often serves as a local route, catering to shorter-distance travelers. Being mindful oflocal traffic dynamics, such as intersections and pedestrian crossings, contributes to overall road safety.

Driver Behavior Increases the Risk of Accidents on Interstates in Hagerstown

Every time you hit the road, you become part of a network of moving vehicles where the behavior of other drivers can threaten your safety.

Common driving behaviors that lead to highway wrecks include:

  • Ignoring traffic signals and speeding
  • Aggressive driving and tailgating
  • Drowsy and distracted driving
  • Driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol

If such behavior leads to an accident, I can guide you through your personal injury claim.

  • Developing a strategy we can take to court if negotiations cannot provide the outcome you deserve
