State crash data from the Texas Department of Transportation reveals a consistent pattern here.

The timing of incidents at this location follows an unusual pattern. Most crashes here fall outside the typical weekday commute peaks. The single busiest hour is 3 to 4 AM, when 6 crashes have occurred. This Wednesday morning collision fits that off-peak window, though the reasons behind the late-night concentration remain unclear.
For context, Harris County recorded 17,737 total incidents in the past 30 days, with 39 fatal. The stretch at FM 1960 and Mills, though representing a fraction of countywide activity, has seen a notable concentration of major crashes—a pattern that persists whether you look at the most recent month or broader time horizons.
The road remains a work zone for first responders. Traffic heading through this intersection should expect potential delays until the scene clears.
