Tuesday's accident fits a broader pattern at this location. LTA data shows Tuesdays are the single busiest day here, with 6 crashes recorded over the past 90 days.

State crash records paint additional context. According to TxDOT CRIS public crash records, the corridor stretching roughly a quarter-mile around this intersection has recorded 266 crashes since January 2020, including one fatal crash.
