According to authorities, a 28-year-old man and 25-year-old Angalis Diaz were traveling in an eastbound blue Honda Accord on the I.H. 10 frontage road approaching the Washington Avenue intersection when the accident took place.

The investigation is currently ongoing.
Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
When a crash involves one vehicle striking another from behind, the cause might seem straightforward, but there’s often more to uncover before the full story is known. A thorough investigation can reveal whether the collision was purely a matter of driver behavior or if other factors played a role.
One question is whether investigators carefully documented the scene to understand the moments leading up to impact. That means measuring skid marks, noting vehicle positions, and collecting debris patterns to help determine speed, following distance, and reaction time. The quality of that work depends on both the training and the resources of the responding officers.
It’s also important to consider whether the striking vehicle—the maroon Accord—was inspected for mechanical issues. Brake failures, tire blowouts, or even malfunctioning driver-assist systems can contribute to a driver’s inability to slow in time. Without a full inspection, these possibilities remain unanswered.
Finally, electronic data can be a powerful tool in cases like this. Event data recorders in either vehicle may show speed, braking, and throttle position in the moments before impact. GPS information, smartphone activity, and nearby camera footage can help confirm those findings and clarify whether distraction or other issues played a role.
Finding clear answers requires looking beyond the obvious sequence of events and letting the evidence guide the conclusions.
Takeaways:
- Scene documentation can clarify speed, distance, and driver reactions.
- Mechanical inspections can rule out defects that may have contributed to the crash.
- Electronic and camera data can confirm the timeline leading up to impact.
