Houston, Texas – A 58-year-old woman was killed on March 1 in a three-vehicle crash in Houston, according to the police.

The 58-year-old woman lost control, entered the southbound lanes, and, as the Infiniti spun around, it was struck on the driver’s side door by a southbound white Dodge 3500 pickup truck.

Common Causes of Automobile Accidents

There are many different reasons why automobile, pedestrian, 18-wheeler, bicycle, and motorcycle accidents occur, including driver negligence, driver inattention, texting and driving, speeding, fatigue, failure to yield the right of way from a stop sign, or private drive, running a red light, and driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
