Houston Personal Injury Attorneys – Smith & Hassler

A 21-year old woman was killed early this morning in a single car accident: she crashed, was ejected from her vehicle, and the vehicle then crushed her.

Channel 2 News Houston reports the woman was heading westbound on Park Row in west Harris County around 2:30 a.m. when she failed to negotiated a curve, causing her to strike the median and then hit a tree.  Investigators believe the woman was tossed from her vehicle, and the vehicle’s momentum caused it to crush her.  Sadly, she died at the scene.  From Channel 2’s picture it appears the vehicle was a Lexus LS430,  Toyota Avalon or possibly a Nissan Maxima.
