Road debris dangers across the Houston area
HOUSTON – It is a high-speed, highly dangerous, highway nightmare. We’re talking about road debris, items falling off other vehicles on the road and then flying directly into your path, into your car, and maybe into your windshield.
“It’s an object that’s traveling 65 to 70 miles an hour, and it’s headed straight for you. Whether it’s a mattress coming off the roof of a car, a bunch of boards or maybe it’s a couch or a chair traveling at that speed, it can severely damage your car and maybe even kill you,” said Sgt. Richard Standifer with the Department of Public Safety.
