Pungo Ferry Road Shut Down After Vehicle Collision [VIRGINIA BEACH, VA]

Pungo Ferry Road Shut Down After Vehicle Collision early Thursday in Virginia Beach, bringing traffic to a standstill while emergency crews worked at the scene. The incident, which occurred near the intersection of Blackwater Road and Princess Anne Road, prompted local authorities to close the stretch of Pungo Ferry Road in both directions until further notice. Motorists were urged to seek alternative routes as first responders assessed the situation and began clearing debris.

Details surrounding the collision remain scarce. According to Virginia Beach police, the wreck involved at least two vehicles, and officers are still determining the precise cause of the incident.

At this time, officials have not released information regarding the number or severity of any injuries, nor have they provided an estimated timeline for reopening the roadway. As road crews remove damaged vehicles and debris, traffic disruptions are expected to persist well into the afternoon.

Witnesses reported seeing emergency medical technicians and firefighters arriving swiftly on the scene. Fire rescue units provided immediate assistance to any victims requiring medical attention, while law enforcement secured the area to prevent further accidents.

Photo and video footage circulating on social media shows flashing lights reflecting off the wet pavement, suggesting that inclement weather may have contributed to reduced visibility or slippery road conditions. Drivers in the vicinity are reminded to exercise caution and remain patient, as detours through nearby residential streets are likely to experience increased congestion.

For those directly impacted by this collision—whether they sustained injuries, suffered property damage, or both—the stakes extend far beyond a closed roadway. Victims may face mounting medical bills, ongoing rehabilitation costs, and potential loss of income if they are unable to return to work promptly.

Additionally, individuals could endure significant pain and suffering, psychological distress, and damage to personal or family vehicles. In many cases, insurance adjusters offer settlements that fall short of adequately covering these expenses, leaving victims undercompensated and struggling to recover financially.

That is where we at Briet Law Attorneys step in to protect the rights of those affected by crashes such as this one on Pungo Ferry Road. Our experienced legal team is dedicated to guiding clients through every stage of the claims process, beginning with a thorough investigation of the accident scene, gathering police reports, consulting with accident reconstruction experts, and preserving critical evidence before it disappears.

Beyond negotiations with negligent parties and their insurers, we are prepared to litigate aggressively if a fair settlement cannot be reached. We understand that the aftermath of a serious vehicle collision can be overwhelming—medical decisions, physical therapy appointments, and mounting bills often become a full-time job for injured parties.
