EMS Respond to Disastrous Traffic Crash on Highway 99

Houston, TX (June 26, 2024) On Tuesday morning, emergency services responded to the SH-99 traffic accident that disrupted morning traffic and may have led to unspecified injuries.

Authorities say that the traffic crash happened around 8:46 a.m. on Highway-99 Lanier Parkway North westbound at Gosling Road.

Reports say that the traffic accident impacted traffic on the right shoulder, right lane, and exit ramp of the highway.

Officials are investigating the traffic crash and have not released full details about the crash.

Cell phone use while driving poses a significant risk of death and injury on U.S. roads. 3,308 people were killed in motor vehicle crashes caused by distracted drivers in 2022.

Distracted driving is anything that takes your attention from driving. It includes talking or texting on your phone, eating and drinking, talking to people in your vehicle, fiddling with the stereo, entertainment, or navigation system. It is anything that takes your attention away from the task of safe driving.

In many jurisdictions, distracted driving is not only dangerous but also illegal. Laws have been implemented to penalize drivers who engage in activities such as using a cell phone while driving. These penalties can include fines, points on the driver’s license, and even license suspension in some cases. It is important to be aware of and abide by these laws to ensure the safety of yourself and others on the road.

It is impossible to drive safely unless you give your full attention to the task at hand. Any non-driving activity you do is a potential distraction and increases your risk of collision.


What Can Be Done Following the SH-99 Traffic Accident?

Each year, around 20-50 million people are injured or become disabled due to an auto crash.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reckless driving is a leading cause of traffic accidents, accounting for approximately 33% of all crashes.
