HOUSTON, TX — One person has been hospitalized after a serious single-vehicle motorcycle accident that was reported in Houston, Texas on Thursday, May 29th, 2014, according to a news article released by Click 2 Houston.
Authorities in charge of the crash investigation have said that they have reason to believe one person was hurt when the motorcycle they were driving crashed while driving through a construction zone on Highway 6.
Scene of the Accident
The driver of the motorcycle was rushed to Memorial Hermann Hospital in a helicopter where he was last report in serious condition after the accident.
The investigation into the crash is currently ongoing at this juncture.
Commentary:
The news report indicates that this accident happened within a construction zone on a major road, which makes me wish I could have a look at the layout of the road, as well as the precise location of the construction. Why? We have all driven past a construction site where there was some portion of equipment, be it a road cone, saw horse, or heavy machinery that is positioned precariously close to the active lanes of traffic. If this accident was caused by equipment or construction debris in the road, or if the construction zone itself was not properly cordoned off and blocked to traffic, the construction company could be liable for some part of this accident.
