A crash at 11403 E FM 1960 RD early Monday morning brought another incident to a stretch of road that's already seen significant activity. The wreck happened at 12:16 AM, when Harris County authorities responded to the scene. Scattered clouds and 79-degree conditions marked the overnight hours, but weather wasn't a factor in this particular incident.
This location has become a consistent pressure point on the LTA real-time incident database. Over the past 30 days, this corridor has logged 24 incidents, including five classified as major. Expand the window to 90 days, and the count rises to 32 total incidents with nine major crashes. That pattern of repeat incidents at the same location is worth noting for anyone who travels this road regularly.
Looking at the broader Harris County picture, the region saw 16,583 incidents in the past 30 days, including 19 fatalities. While this particular crash wasn't fatal, the frequency of incidents at this specific address underscores why drivers need to stay alert here.
Historically, crashes here don't follow a single rush-hour pattern. According to LTA data, the single busiest hour is 6 to 7 PM with four crashes, though incidents occur at varied times throughout the day rather than concentrating into one window. Thursdays have been the highest-incident day over the past 90 days with six crashes.
State crash records paint a picture of what typically happens on FM 1960 in this area. Per TxDOT CRIS public crash records dating back to January 2020, there have been 443 crashes within about a quarter-mile of this location, with zero fatalities. Contributing factors as recorded by investigating officers show "Failed To Control Speed" as the leading factor, cited in 176 crashes.

Details on injuries, lane closures, and the exact status of this morning's crash weren't immediately available. Authorities cleared the scene and traffic returned to normal flow. For anyone using FM 1960 in the predawn or early morning hours, conditions appear clear as of now—but this corridor's incident history suggests caution remains warranted at any time of day.
