Well, howdy there! Let me tell ya ’bout this I-35 thing in Austin. It’s a real mess, I tell ya. Cars crashin’ left and right, like a bunch of chickens with their heads cut off. Darnedest thing I ever did see.
Folks been dyin’ on that road, more than you can shake a stick at. Heard tell there’s been over a hundred and thirty folks gone to meet their maker on that stretch of road between Buda and Round Rock since 2019. That’s a whole lotta folks, ain’t it? Makes ya think twice ’bout drivin’ down there.
Just the other day, there was another one of them “major accidents.” Fire folks were all over the place, sirens blarin’, lights flashin’. Heard two poor souls got hurt. Hope they’re gonna be alright. Seems like every time you turn around, there’s another wreck on that I-35. It’s like a dang magnet for trouble.
- Trucks flippin’ over
- Cars smashin’ into each other
- People gettin’ hurt
It’s a real scary thing, I tell ya. And that ain’t the half of it. This mornin’, heard tell someone got themselves killed walkin’ on the road. Poor fella. They had to shut down the whole northbound side of the highway. Traffic was backed up for miles, I bet. Folks stuck in their cars, honkin’ their horns, gettin’ all riled up.
Now, if you’re wonderin’ ’bout whether there’s been a crash near you, don’t go callin’ 911 unless it’s a real emergency. Them folks got better things to do than answer your questions. You can call the police desk or the highway patrol folks, they’ll tell ya what’s goin’ on. And if you need one of them accident reports, you can get it online. But it’ll cost ya a little somethin’. Nothin’s free these days, is it?
Heard tell Dallas has got the most accidents in Texas. Big city, lots of cars, guess it makes sense. But I-35 in Austin, that’s somethin’ else. It’s like a war zone out there. And Texas, well, it’s got more car accidents than any other state. Over four thousand folks died last year. That’s a whole lot of heartache, ain’t it?
So, what’s the deal with I-35? Why’s it so dang dangerous? Well, I ain’t no expert, but I reckon it’s got somethin’ to do with all them cars goin’ too fast. And folks ain’t payin’ attention. They’re textin’ on their phones, lookin’ at their maps, fiddlin’ with the radio. Next thing you know, bam! They’re in a wreck. It’s a cryin’ shame, it is.
I tell ya, you gotta be careful out there on the road. Keep your eyes peeled, drive the speed limit, and don’t be foolin’ around with your phone. Your life ain’t worth a text message, that’s for sure. And that I-35 in Austin? Well, just steer clear of it if you can. It’s a dangerous place, I tell ya. A real dangerous place.
Accidents happen, that’s just a fact of life. But when you got a road like I-35 where it seems like accidents are happenin’ all the time, well, that’s a problem. And it’s a problem that needs fixin’. But how you gonna fix it? I don’t know. Maybe slow folks down, maybe put up more signs, maybe get them police folks to patrol it more. Somethin’s gotta be done, that’s for sure. Before more folks get hurt or killed.
So, y’all be careful out there, alright? And if you gotta drive on I-35 in Austin, well, say a little prayer and keep your fingers crossed. You’re gonna need all the luck you can get.
