August 20, 2013

CrashFactsVehicle-into-building crashes happen more frequently than you might think. And they occur most often when a driver is entering or leaving a parking space facing a building. Experts at the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI) and the Storefront Safety Council say preliminary research indicates that 70 percent of such collisions involve crashing into a convenience store, restaurant or other business.

Recently, KBTX News featured this research during an evening newscast. To see their report and video of the newscast, visit the KBTX.com website.
