I-264 Crash Stops Traffic and Sends Man to the Hospital
Posted on Jun 19, 2009
According to an article in the Virginian Pilot, a recent multiple vehicle crash on Interstate 264 near the Virginia Beach-Norfolk line stopped traffic for about 90 minutes. At around 6:30 p.m., Virginia State Police investigated an accident. The accident involved a Ford SUV near the exit of Woodstock and Newtown Road. The driver of the SUV attempted to cross four lanes of eastbound traffic, struck a pickup truck and lost control. His vehicle then hit another vehicle in the HOV lane and went airborne over the concrete median barrier. The SUV landed on the westbound side of I-264.
The SUV driver, a 20-year old Suffolk man, was flown to Norfolk General Hospital with multiple injuries. Both sides of I-264 were closed until 8:00 p.m.

FAQs
Car & Motorcycle Accidents
- I've been hurt in a car wreck and the insurance company for the other driver has called me to give a recorded statement. Should I do it?
- Should I use my regular health insurance to pay for the medical care I need as a result of a car accident?
- Our new clients in car accident cases often asked, "Can I accept a check which has been offered to me for my car repairs or will that mess up my claim for injuries and medical bills?"
- Why shouldn't I just take a quick settlement for whatever the car insurance company for the other driver will pay me?
- What do I do if the at-fault driver's car insurance is not returning my calls or dragging its feet after a Virginia car accident with injuries?
