Video shows Ohio driver suddenly stopping in lane of busy interstate, causing crash

Ohio Department of Transportation video shows a driver stop in a travel lane, triggering a chain reaction crash involving multiple vehicles.

  • Footage released by the Ohio DOT shows a vehicle stopped in a travel lane on I-670 in Columbus, triggering a multi-vehicle collision.
  • Traffic formed behind the stationary vehicle, forcing drivers to swerve around the obstruction; the sudden movement caused a multi-vehicle crash behind the blockage.
  • After causing the pile-up on the Interstate, the motorist responsible drove away from the scene without stopping to address the damage.
  • Following the incident, the Ohio DOT issued a Facebook warning: "If you're confused, new to driving, or just lost, do NOT stop in a travel lane."
  • Officials advised motorists to safely exit highways or pull over properly rather than blocking traffic flow, which creates significant hazards for drivers.
