UPDATE (December 17, 2025): Recent reports have been released which identify the man who lost his life as a result of this accident as 26-year-old Jesus Apolinar Florencio. No further details are currently available. Investigations remain ongoing.

Bexar County, TX — December 13, 2025, one person was killed and another was injured in a wrong-way car accident shortly after 2:15 a.m. along Wurzbach Parkway.

According to authorities, a 29-year-old man was traveling in a westbound Chevrolet Cruze on Wurzbach Parkway near the Crosswinds Way intersection when the accident took place. Officials indicate that the Cruze was involved in a collision with a motor vehicle that had been traveling in the wrong direction.

The person who had been behind the wheel of the wrong-way vehicle reportedly sustained fatal injuries due to the wreck and was declared deceased at the scene. The man from the Cruze suffered injuries of unknown severity, though they were apparently not life-threatening; he was taken to a local medical facility by EMS in order to receive necessary treatment.

Additional details pertaining to this incident—including the identities of the victims—are not available at this point in time. The investigation is currently ongoing.

When a driver is hit by a vehicle going the wrong way, attention tends to focus on how the other car ended up in the lane. But to understand the full scope of what happened, it’s just as important to examine how the crash was investigated, and whether all contributing factors have been explored—regardless of how clear the fault may seem.

1. Did the authorities thoroughly investigate the crash?
Wrong-way collisions usually trigger immediate questions about driver behavior, but the physical investigation at the scene still matters. Did crash teams document vehicle positions, damage profiles, and points of impact to establish speeds and angles? Was the wrong-way path reconstructed to determine how far the vehicle traveled in the incorrect direction? These details help confirm not only what happened, but how it unfolded—and whether any decisions or system failures could have influenced the outcome.

2. Has anyone looked into the possibility that a vehicle defect caused the crash?
While wrong-way driving is typically assumed to be human error, it’s worth asking whether something mechanical played a role. Could the vehicle that entered the roadway in the wrong direction have had a steering issue, faulty GPS guidance, or sensor malfunctions? Even small errors in lane-keeping systems or gear selection could cause confusion under certain conditions. Without a full inspection of that vehicle, mechanical causes may go unnoticed.

3. Has all the electronic data relating to the crash been collected?
Both vehicles likely had systems that recorded critical data—speed, braking, steering, and possibly GPS routes. Was that information retrieved to confirm how the crash developed? Were traffic or surveillance cameras reviewed to verify the wrong-way vehicle’s entry point or duration on the road? These tools can often establish a clearer timeline and offer more reliable insights than witness statements alone.

Crashes involving wrong-way drivers require more than a focus on fault. A full investigation can uncover whether this was an isolated incident or part of a broader set of risks that need to be addressed.

Key Takeaways:

• Wrong-way crashes should be fully reconstructed to verify vehicle movement, speed, and impact angles.
• Mechanical or system failures may contribute and should be ruled out through proper inspection.
• Vehicle data and roadway cameras are critical for confirming how the collision unfolded.
