Crash at Synott Road Caps Month of 19 Incidents

📅 May 10, 2026 at 12:00 AMBy LTA Newsroom📍 6700 SYNOTT RDHarris County

A major crash occurred at 6700 Synott Road in Harris County at 12:00 AM on Sunday, May 10, 2026. No fatalities were reported.

The incident marks the latest in an extreme concentration of collisions at this residential location. According to LTA data, Synott Road has recorded 19 incidents over the past 30 days — 10 of them major crashes. Over 90 days, the corridor has sustained 42 total incidents, with 25 classified as major. The 12-month total stands at 46 incidents, including 26 major crashes.

Weather conditions at the time of the incident were scattered clouds and 75 degrees Fahrenheit.

The pattern at this location defies typical rush-hour concentration. LTA analysis shows that while Friday produces the highest single-day incident count at Synott Road — six crashes in the 90-day window — the corridor's dominant incident time is off-peak hours. Only 23 percent of crashes here occur during the traditional rush-hour window (90-day average). The peak crash hour at this address is 3 PM to 4 PM, with eight incidents recorded over the past three months.

The Sunday morning timing of this crash aligns with the corridor's established pattern of collisions outside commute windows. The residential street classification and the high volume of off-peak incidents suggest factors distinct from typical freeway congestion dynamics.

Harris County recorded 19,239 total traffic incidents in the past 30 days, with 33 fatal crashes, according to LTA data. Statewide, TxDOT publishes crash data annually through the Crash Records Information System.

The crash at Synott Road adds to a sustained pattern that distinguishes this location within the 13-county Houston-Galveston region. LTA tracks 72,182 incidents across the region, with updates every two minutes.

No additional details regarding vehicle involvement, lane closures, or injury specifics were available at the time of reporting.
