The crashes resulted in both Routes 495 and 140 being shut down for more than an hour after 8 PM. There also were numerous accidents in the Boston area and as far south as Pembroke and Duxbury, where there was a 15-car pile-up on Route 3. A 16-car pile-up was reported in Canton near the junction of Route 128 and Route 95. A 4-car pile-up was reported in Quincy. Only minor injuries resulted from the automobile crashes.
