  • At 12:40 am Sunday EMC and Porter Fire were dispatched to a reported crash involving a vehicle that left the freeway and crashed under the overpass. Units got there to find a Jeep Wrangler upside down on FM 1485 under SH 99. The driver had been ejected from the vehicle and was deceased. The drivers wife who was in the passenger seat was in stable condition and transported to Kingwood Hospital. She did have a seatbelt on. DPS Troopers determined the Jeep was westbound on SH 99 between WIlderness and Galaxy Drive. As he approached the FM 1485 overpass the 30-year-old male left the roadway and traveled down the center grassy median. With no barrier at the overpass, the Jeep launched off and landed upside down some 20 feet below. The driver who was not wearing a seatbelt was ejected from the vehicle. Eickenhorst Funeral Directors transported the victim to the Montgomery County Forensic Center for autopsy.

    Couple was in the car. Passenger women survived with minor injuries. She was wearing her seatbelt. Driver man did not survive. He was not wearing his seatbelt. Alcohol was involved. I tried helping but he had already passed. His name was George. My condolences to the family.

      April, had the person had their seatbelt on, I’m not sure if a persons head and neck could take the G-Force sustained in the impact with the asphalt/concrete. Kind like when nascar drivers hit the wall at certain angle. Body and organs can’t take the sudden stop.

      It just depends where you're standing when you make that statement, where you're getting your statistics ? there's just as many people in car accidents that are getting killed with seat belts than without.
      I new a DPS officer that would absolutely not wear his seatbelt, he was on the force for over 40 years, he had told me he seen more people that lost their lives because of wearing a seatbelt.
      Also in your vehicle that's your business, should not be mandatory absolutely not at all.

    OK. Seat belt time. WEAR it even if you don't like them.
    Just 3 days ago my sister-in-law's husband's brother was driving his pickup on I-90 in South Dakota when he was rear-ended by someone in a car. This caused him to lose control and go into a ditch and roll. Unfortunately, he as usual was NOT wearing his seat belt. He was ejected and the truck continued to roll right over him, killing him. The driver of the car was not injured.

      I'm guessing that it's something tied to the airbags on modern vehicles, airbags deploy and the hazards automatically turn on. I have seen the same thing and wondered how they got turned on. Just a guess, but as much tech is in cars today it's possible.

      @jamie6387 I'm in North Carolina. A rural area but a larger city a half hour away. It seems daily there are horrible car crashes with fatalities and/or catastrophic injuries. Mainly speed, not paying attention like texting and people Not wearing their seat belts. I have family members in Georgia and Virginia and it's the same there as well. Looking at statistics with such large numbers of deceased in auto crashes there is a nationwide problem.

      Crush? What are you talking about, the cage prevented the roof from crushing in. Also seatbelt probably would've saved him. There were 2 people in the vehicle 1 wearing seat belt and one not wearing seat belt. The driver the one not wearing the seat belt was ejected and died. The passenger who was wearing a seat belt survived and was in stable condition.
