Highway Design Defects and Tunnel Accidents
Drivers travel on roads and highways on a daily basis, unaware of the potential design defects that could cause an accident without a moment's notice. Accidents related to roadway or tunnel design defects often result in serious injury or death.
Design problems in tunnels and overpasses can easily lead to multi-vehicle accidents setting off chain reaction collisions. In chain reaction collisions, drivers and passengers toward the front and middle of the accident scene can be subjected to multiple traumatic impacts as each subsequent vehicle hits the pile-up. Motorists can become trapped in their vehicles, unable to escape fires or other dangerous conditions.
Typically, highway safety officials do not make modifications to existing roads, signs or structures until after an accident occurs - or, in most instances, until numerous accidents occur at the same location. Common road design defects include obstructed views, faulty guardrails and insufficient warning signs or lights. These types of hazards can and should be fixed before people get hurt. Unfortunately, thousands of innocent victims suffer injuries due to design defects each year.
