Crash Risks in Residential-Commercial Corridors of Houston
Streets like Howard Dr that serve both homes and businesses can see increased crash risk due to mixed-use traffic. With families, delivery trucks, and commuters all navigating the same corridor, accidents can result from anything from blind spots and hurried left turns to abrupt stops.
Houston continues to experience high accident volumes, particularly in multi-use neighborhoods like Meadowbrook – Allendale. The Texas Department of Transportation has noted that many injury-related crashes in Houston happen in areas where residential and commercial zones converge, often during the evening when activity remains high.
Drivers traveling through these corridors should exercise increased caution, especially during weekends when social gatherings and local events may lead to more cars on the road. Maintaining slower speeds, avoiding distractions, and staying alert to both pedestrian and vehicle movement can help prevent similar incidents.
