Smart car wrecked by Kroger 18-wheeler, US 59 in Porter
The driver of a tiny Smart car was badly hurt in a crash with a Kroger 18-wheeler on US 59 in the Porter area. The Montgomery County Police Reporter web site says the wreck happened around 1:00 a.m. Saturday between FM 1314 and Community Drive. The woman driving the Smart car was found laying in the roadway in the southbound lanes of US 59 having apparently been ejected out of the rear of the vehicle. The accident happened when the 18-wheeler driver executed a lane change and failed to see the smaller vehicle, striking the Smart car and pushing it into a concrete barrier. The lady driving the Smart car was last listed as being in critical condition at Memorial Hermann in Houston.
