Indianapolis, IN – More than 150 crashes have been reported across Indianapolis since snowfall began Monday, creating lingering hazardous travel conditions for drivers this morning.
According to IMPD, while the snow has stopped, many roads across Marion County and the greater Indianapolis metro remain slick, with icy patches forming overnight. First responders say they have been handling a steady stream of weather-related collisions, slide-offs, and minor injury crashes since the first round of snow moved in.
IMPD noted the crash count continues to grow as morning commuters return to the roads, particularly on untreated neighborhood streets and elevated surfaces such as bridges and overpasses. Drivers are being asked to slow down, increase following distances, and allow extra time for travel throughout Tuesday.
Police also stressed the importance of giving emergency crews and snow-removal teams plenty of space to work as they continue clearing trouble spots. Even small changes in speed or visibility can lead to additional crashes on icy surfaces.
No widespread road closures have been reported, but authorities warn that conditions may remain variable throughout the day as temperatures fluctuate.
Residents across Indianapolis, Marion County, and nearby suburbs—including Lawrence, Speedway, and Beech Grove—are urged to use caution until roads fully improve.
