Wet streets in Houston from our recent downpour contributed to cause an accident with a semi truck on Saturday. The truck accident happened on Interstate 10 not far from downtown Houston.
According to officials, the semi truck driver lost control of the tractor-trailer and crashed the truck on Interstate 10.
With significant truck accidents and with trucks overturned, HAZMAT was called in to ensure that the fuel spills, if any, were properly dealt with to avoid discharge of contaminants into our waters and further accidents on the roadway.
Much of Interstate 10 was closed due to this major truck accident. The traffic congestion was significant and long delays were the order of the day on Interstate 10.
The truck driver was helped from his wrecked semi and was transported by ambulance to a local hospital for evaluation of injury.
