Any motor vehicle accident that occurs on the New York State Thruway, also known as the Governor Thomas E. Dewey Thruway, is considered a New York State Thruway accident. Thruway accidents also occur on the Youngman Expressway in Buffalo, New York; Amherst, New York; and Tonawanda, New York. The Youngman Expressway is also known as the I-290 in Buffalo, New York. Thruway accidents furthermore happen on the I-90 and the 219 Expressway in Buffalo, New York and Orchard Park, New York.

Car, SUV and truck crashes on the New York State Thruway are more deadly than other types of collisions due to:

1. High Speeds: The speed limit on the New York Thruway ranges from 55 to 65 miles per hour. Because drivers are going faster on a thruway than a regular road, the collisions that occur on the thruway are often more dangerous.
2. Distance Between Vehicles: As a car’s speed increases, drivers have less time to stop a vehicle before crashing into another car. This means thruway accidents are more deadly and dangerous.
3. Inaccurate Safety Ratings: The safety ratings of most vehicles are determined between 30 and 40 miles per hour. Unfortunately, cars are not tested for safety at 65 miles per hour. This often means that high speed collisions will result in more severe injuries than expected.
