It’s the most dangerous road in Texas, and the second deadliest road in the USA. Someone is killed every two hours on Interstate 35, which runs from Dallas to Houston. Roads don’t get much more dangerous than this.
Hazards include speeding drivers or those don’t obey the rules of the road, people who use their phone while driving, drunk drivers, and even car chases. There are laws in place, but it’s rare for penalties to be imposed. Our film shows how some drivers of heavy vehicles take unnecessary risks. But the poor condition of the road doesn’t help the situation. The state of the road is hardly worthy of the wealthiest country in the world.
Bad weather causes further problems, with torrential rains often causing fatal accidents. The most horrifying accident took place on February 11th 2021 in Fort Worth. Ice on the road and poor visibility caused a gigantic pile-up involving nearly 130 vehicles. Six people died. The tragedy hit Texans hard. We use archive and witness testimony to explain how this terrible accident happened. We follow all those whose lives are tied to Interstate 35: police, rescue workers, firefighters, but also drivers, including families who need to take this road every day, even in fear for their lives.
An accident is reported every 56 seconds in Texas. How did it become the most dangerous state in the USA for drivers? Why are there so many accidents on Texas’ highways? We uncover the secrets of the fabled Interstate 35, the road where danger waits at every turn.
