ORLANDO, Fla. – Every morning I get to report traffic conditions to you that may affect your morning commute.
When crashes occur, not only are they impeding to the parties involved but to everyone else traveling on that roadway.
Each crash is treated as an independent investigation and depending on the circumstances, depends how long the road will be closed. The roadway gets shut down in order to preserve the scene and keep anyone safe on that scene from passing traffic.
Sometimes secondary crashes occur because the roadway remains open and drivers simply don’t pay attention. Then, there are times where the roadway will be shut for several hours because a homicide investigation must take place or some type of criminal element exists.
Trooper Steve on Patrol will cover the explanations behind why we shut down the roadway, when we shut down the roadway, why we move cars, why we don’t move cars, and all the other elements that go into investigating serious crashes.
