Merrimac, MA (July 5, 2018) – A multi car pile-up on I-495 Wednesday resulted in traffic headaches for holiday travelers and caused injuries to those involved in the crash.  The collision happened just after 4:00 pm on 495 North just prior to Broad Street.  Multiple vehicles were involved in this crash.  One of the vehicles ended up off the roadway and came to rest on the right shoulder, resulting in that area being blocked.  Traffic backed up for a considerable distance leading towards the crash scene until police could clear the damaged vehicles from the road.

At least one was injured in the crash and received medical treatment as a result.  The extent and severity of injuries remains unknown at this time.  Police were able to clear the roadway within an hour and allow traffic to pass through again.  The accident remains under investigation.  No word on the identities of those involved.

Those of us who live in and around the city are aware of these types of accidents. They seem to happen almost daily on our streets and highways.

Still,  car accidents are unexpected in almost every case.  They happen suddenly and leave you wondering how you will recover or how your family might be impacted by the residual effects of the crash.  After an injury accident, there is no doubt that you are looking at a number of uncertainties about your future.

You may receive calls from insurance companies in the aftermath of your accident.  They will want to send someone out to evaluate the damage to your vehicle and will inquire about your injuries and medical treatment.  The adjuster will also want you to give a recorded statement about the accident and what occurred in your own words. If you have been hurt, you should never speak with the insurance company until you have first spoken with a personal injury attorney.   Your attorney will deal with the insurance company so that you can worry about more important things such as your healing.
