Traffic Disrupted on I-64 Following Collision Near 4th View Street [NORFOLK, VA]

Traffic was disrupted on I-64 following a collision near 4th View Street, causing significant delays for motorists in Norfolk on Saturday afternoon. The crash, which occurred in the westbound lanes of Interstate 64, led to the temporary closure of the left shoulder and left lane, according to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT).

The incident brought traffic to a near standstill as emergency responders arrived on the scene to manage the situation. While the specific number of vehicles involved has not yet been released, the nature of the lane closures suggests the accident was substantial enough to warrant immediate intervention. Drivers were advised to seek alternate routes or expect extended travel times through the affected area.

Authorities are continuing to investigate the cause of the crash. Weather conditions at the time appeared to be clear, which suggests the possibility of driver error, mechanical failure, or sudden stops that may have triggered the collision. Regardless of the cause, crashes like these not only disrupt traffic but often leave victims with significant physical, emotional, and financial burdens.

When a collision leads to lane closures and traffic delays, it’s often a sign of a serious incident—one that may have involved injuries or extensive vehicle damage. For victims, the aftermath can be overwhelming. They may face costly medical bills, lost wages from time off work, ongoing therapy or rehabilitation, and emotional distress. Additionally, damage to personal vehicles can result in expensive repairs or even necessitate replacement.
