HTX Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Been wondering what this all about for years, maybe some here knows.Going N out side the loop on 45 there are big blue highways signs starting at Tidwell and going as far north West Rd directing traffic to the"Accident Investigation Site." What accident are they referring to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicman Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 i believe those are for car accidents that happen and the wrecked cars/police move there so as not to interfere with traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sevfiv Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Yep:http://www.houstontranstar.org/sici.aspxIf an accident occurs on a main lane, ramp, shoulder, median or adjacent area of a freeway and each vehicle can be normally and safely driven, each vehicle operator shall move the operator's vehicle as soon as possible to a designated accident investigation site, a location on the frontage road, the nearest suitable cross street or other suitable location to complete the requirements of Section 550.023 and minimize the interference with existing freeway traffic flow.

HTX Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 That makes sense, but why are those signs not on all of the other freeways? Or are they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
