Deputy Injured in North Beltway 8 Crash on Sunday Evening

A shocking incident occurred on Sunday evening when a driver lost control and crashed into a patrol vehicle parked along the shoulder of the North Beltway at Veterans Memorial in Houston, leaving a deputy injured.

According to authorities, the deputy was inside the vehicle monitoring traffic when the crash happened. Miraculously, despite the severity of the impact, the deputy suffered only minor injuries.

The incident has prompted officials to urge drivers to exercise extreme caution while driving through the area, as there may be delays and emergency personnel on the scene. In fact, authorities are advising motorists to slow down and move over for any rescue efforts that may unfold.

This unfortunate event serves as a stark reminder of the risks associated with road accidents and the importance of being vigilant behind the wheel. As a community, we must remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to ensure public safety.

If you have information about the incident or know anyone who was involved, please contact authorities immediately.
 
OMG u no i just had the WORST day ever 🤯 i was on my way 2 work n my car broke down 😩 i had 2 walk like 5 miles 2 the nearest bus stop 🚶‍♀️ n when i got home, i realized i left my lunch at the office 🍔😱 what a day lololol anywayz back to this crash in Houston 🚗💥 i mean, it's so sad that the deputy got hurt 🤕 but at least they're okay rn 💪 let's all just take a deep breath n drive more careful, 'kay? 🙏 and btw, has anyone seen my fave singer on telly last night?? 😆
 
🚨 the fact that the deputy was monitoring traffic from inside the vehicle raises questions about the efficacy of using patrol vehicles as mobile command centers. shouldn't they be prioritizing officer safety and mobility over stationary surveillance? 🤔 also, the lack of speed-related evidence suggests that this may not have been a case of reckless driving, but rather an unforeseen accident... still, it's a sobering reminder to all drivers on the road to stay alert and aware of their surroundings! ⚠️
 
Ugh I'm still shaking thinking about this crazy crash 🤯! Glad that deputy is gonna be okay tho, can't believe how close they came to being hurt 😩. Like, what's going on with these roads? It's like the whole North Beltway 8 needs a major overhaul 🚧. Anyway, super smart move by authorities to slow everyone down and move over for any rescue efforts... hope no one else gets hurt 🙏. Should really be more signs and traffic cameras around that area to keep people on their toes 😅. Anyone have any info about what happened? 🤔
 
🚨 Just heard about this crazy incident on the North Beltway in Houston! Can't believe some driver lost control and bashed into a patrol car 🤯. Thankfully that deputy is okay, minor injuries though 🙏. It's a harsh reminder to all of us to be super careful on the roads, especially during rush hour or when emergency crews are around 💨. I mean, it's one thing to get stressed driving, but not worth risking someone's life... or in this case, a deputy's! 😬 Let's all just take a deep breath and keep our eyes peeled for any suspicious activity 🚔💡. If you've got info on what happened, totally hit up the authorities, k? 👮‍♂️

me: Omg what if they had been on patrol duty at that exact spot irl? no thanks 🙅‍♂️

me: can you imagine having to deal with traffic after this incident? it's already bad enough without the added stress 💔
 
🚨 This is just so concerning... I mean, can you imagine being in that deputy's shoes? Just minding your own business, watching traffic flow by, and then BAM! Your patrol vehicle gets crashed into? It's a miracle he didn't get hurt worse. Minor injuries are still pretty serious, though - I'm sure it was super scary for him.

Anyway, this is like the perfect example of why we need to all be more careful on the roads. There are so many variables out there that can cause accidents, and sometimes they just happen without warning. It's not just about the driver; sometimes other people's actions (or lack thereof) can put others in harm's way.

I'm glad authorities are being proactive about reminding us to slow down and be cautious around emergency responders. It's a tough job for them, and we should all do our part to make it safer for everyone involved. Let's all just take a deep breath, be more mindful on the roads, and report any suspicious activity so we can keep our community safe 🙏💚
 
🚨 Omg, I'm still shaking my head thinking about that crash on Sunday evening! How lucky is that deputy, though? Minor injuries, wow 😲. It's crazy to think about how quickly things can go wrong while driving. I've been on roads with heavy construction and roadworks before, it's always a bit nerve-wracking 🤯.

So many questions running through my mind... like, what was the speed limit that day? Was there any sign of reckless driving or speeding? And did the patrol vehicle have its lights on? It's frustrating to think about how many accidents happen every year and most of us are just lucky to get away unscathed 🙏.

It's great that authorities are taking precautions and urging drivers to slow down, though. We need more awareness about road safety! Do you guys drive in areas prone to accidents or near highways? What are some tips for staying safe on the roads?
 
I don't get why everyone's making such a big deal about this crash on the North Beltway 🤔. I mean, yeah, it's always scary when someone gets hurt in a car accident, but like, what's new? We should be more concerned about the fact that there was a patrol vehicle parked along the shoulder to begin with 🚨. I'm all for safety and all, but can't we just make sure our roads are properly marked and maintained before we start worrying about people losing control of their cars? And another thing, who's been advising folks to slow down in this area? Is it really necessary to slow down every time you're driving by the scene of a crash? It feels like we're just perpetuating a cycle of fear here 😬. Let's focus on improving our infrastructure instead, shall we?
 
just saw this news 🚨, its crazy that some1 lost control & crashed into a police vehicle 🤯...minor injuries tho is kinda reassuring? 🙏 shouldn't be too bad, but still gotta give credit to the deputy for staying calm during the whole thing 😌. what's even crazier is the authorities advising people to slow down & move over 🚗💨, like whats wrong with ppl these days? 🤷‍♂️ got a feeling theres more to this story than meets the eye...any sources on this tho? 📰
 
Just had to see this news 🤦‍♂️. So sad that one of our brave deputies got hurt in that crash. It's crazy how quickly things can go wrong on the road, even for those of us who think we're safe drivers 🚗💨. I mean, it's one thing to slow down when you see police cars or ambulances, but to lose control completely is just terrifying 😱. We need to be more mindful of our surroundings and look out for each other on the roads 🌟. Let's all do our part to keep our community safe by reporting anything suspicious and being extra cautious ourselves 🚨💡.
 
😕 this is just terrible... another reminder that even in places with good law enforcement, accidents can still happen. i think it's crazy how fast our roads are moving and yet we're not prioritizing safety enough 🚗💨. what's the hurry, right? and poor deputy... glad to hear they're okay, but also super frustrating that this had to happen in the first place 😤. i hope more people take notice of their surroundings and slow down, especially with emergency services on the scene 🚨. it's all about being aware and looking out for each other, you know? 💡
 
Man that's crazy 🤯! I'm glad that deputy is alright though, minor injuries are def better than nothing. It's like, what were they even thinking driving so fast on the North Beltway? It's not like it's a highway or anything, slow down and be aware of your surroundings, you know? And now they're advising people to move over for any rescue efforts, that's just gonna cause more traffic jams... what a nightmare 🚨. Anyway, glad the community is coming together to look out for each other, we should all be doing our part to keep the roads safe 😊.
 
I'm still shaking my head thinking about this crash! I mean, what's going on with our roads? It's like people think they're invincible or something 🙄😱. I've got kids in school and every time they talk about driving, it just gives me the heebie-jeebies. Like, they're not even allowed to have their phones while driving yet?! And now this? A deputy gets hurt... it's just terrible 😔. We need to be looking out for each other on the roads, period. Slow down, move over, it's not that hard 🚗💨. I'm glad the deputy is okay but seriously, let's all just take a deep breath and try to stay safe out there, yeah? 👍
 
omg i was on my way home from work last nite and i saw some crazy flashing lights on beltway 8 🚨😱 i was like what's going on but then i realized it was an accident and a deputy got hurt 😔 i'm so glad the deputy is okay tho, minor injuries are def better than nothing 💉 anyway i was thinking about how we need to be more careful on the roads, especially with all these new cars out there 🚗💨 my friend's cousin just got into a crash last month and it was super scary for them 😬 hope this guy recovers fast 💕
 
Oh man, like what a crazy thing happened on Sunday night 🤯! Some dude lost control of his car and smashed into that cop's car 🚨. I'm glad the deputy is okay tho, only minor injuries 😌. It's wild how they were monitoring traffic from inside the car and still got caught off guard. Anyway, this is like a major reminder to all us drivers out there: slow down and watch where you're going, fam 💥. No need for that kind of drama on our roads 🚗. Let's all just be more aware and report any weird stuff we see 👀.
 
Omg 🤯 can't believe a deputy got hurt like that on the North Beltway 😱 they gotta be super careful out there 👮‍♂️ it's so scary thinking about what could've happened if the deputy wasn't in the vehicle... and now everyone driving through that area has to slow down too 🚗😬 just hope the guy gets back to normal soon 💪
 
🚨 Just heard about that crazy crash on the North Beltway last night 🌃️.. like seriously, how do people not pay attention when they're driving? The deputy's lucky to be alive, tbh. It's just another reminder that road safety is super important 🚗💥. I mean, we've all been there where we're in a rush and our minds are elsewhere... no excuse for speeding or ignoring traffic cones though 🙅‍♂️. Glad the deputy is okay, but yeah, let this be a warning to everyone out there: drive safe, stay alert! 😬
