Windsor, NY (November 11, 2025) – A one-vehicle crash on Interstate 86 West caused lane closures and traffic delays near Windsor Tuesday morning.
The crash occurred around 10:30 a.m. on 11th Nov 2025, between Exit 79 and Exit 78, temporarily blocking the right westbound lane. New York State Police, along with emergency and transportation crews, responded to the scene to clear the roadway and assist any involved parties.
Authorities have not confirmed whether any injuries occurred, and details about the cause of the crash remain limited. Officials noted that winter weather conditions have led to multiple accidents across Broome County, including along Route 17 and Route 201.

During winter weather, icy roads and reduced visibility often contribute to loss-of-control accidents. However, factors such as road maintenance issues, defective tires, or negligent commercial drivers can also play a role. Victims of weather-related crashes may still have valid claims depending on the circumstances.
Consulting a NY personal injury lawyer can help determine whether negligence or improper roadway maintenance contributed to the crash. Legal guidance ensures victims receive fair compensation for medical expenses, property damage, and recovery costs.
