Highway Accidents in Pennsylvania
Interstate highways like I-76, I-95, I-80, and I-78 are essential for travel and commerce across Pennsylvania—but they also see some of the most serious and complex vehicle accidents in the state. With high speeds, dense traffic, aggressive driving, and unpredictable weather, collisions on these major roadways can result in devastating injuries, extensive property damage, and, in some cases, loss of life.
Interstate accidents often involve multiple vehicles, including large commercial trucks, out-of-state drivers, and heavy passenger traffic. These factors can make determining fault and pursuing a claim more difficult than in a typical two-car crash on a local road.
Common causes of interstate collisions include speeding, distracted driving, tailgating, improper lane changes, fatigued driving, and failure to adjust to weather conditions. When accidents occur at high speeds, the risk of serious injury increases dramatically—and victims are often left with mounting medical bills, lost income, and long-term recovery needs.
If you’ve been involved in a crash on a Pennsylvania interstate, it’s critical to act quickly. Get medical attention right away, call law enforcement to the scene, and document everything you can—photos of the vehicles, roadway conditions, witness information, and a copy of the police report. These details can be key to building a strong case.
Because interstate crashes often involve commercial vehicles, multiple insurers, or even out-of-state legal issues, having someone who understands Pennsylvania’s traffic laws and insurance processes can help you avoid delays and mistakes.
