Car accidents are a common occurrence across Texas, with busy intersections like North Fwy and Airline Dr in Houston being frequent sites of collisions. Urban traffic, combined with high-speed thoroughfares, increases the likelihood of accidents. Morning rush hours, such as the time of this incident, can be particularly hazardous due to heavy traffic and hurried drivers.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation, in 2023, there were over 15,000 serious injury crashes in the state, resulting in nearly 18,000 people sustaining serious injuries.
