Accidents that involve commercial vehicles like box trucks can be extremely dire as these vehicles are so much larger than the average car on the road. These accidents can end up impacting multiple people and causing severe injuries. It is so important for drivers of these large vehicles to remain vigilant at all times, and it is equally important for the drivers around them to use caution.
On May 25, the Massachusetts State Police received information of a two-vehicle crash that involved a box truck and another vehicle. This accident occurred at the Boston O’Neill Tunnel on Route 93 near Exit 23. Police learned of this accident around 2:20 a.m. and arrived on the scene shortly after.
Upon arrival, emergency responders administered care for minor injuries. They closed down the three right lanes of the highway and directed traffic around the area. The incident caused traffic to backup for about 2 miles. The extent of the injuries was not initially known, but initial reports suggest the injuries are not life-threatening.
