Wrong-Way Crash in Galveston Kills One

On January 3, 2025, a 69-year-old man, Steven Glenn Miller, was killed in a wrong-way crash on State Highway 183 in Fort Worth. Miller's vehicle collided head-on with another vehicle, resulting in his immediate death, while the other driver sustained non-life-threatening injuries. Just two days earlier, on New Year's Day, a separate wrong-way crash in Galveston left one driver dead and four family members injured, two of whom suffered critical injuries. This incident involved a vehicle traveling westbound in an eastbound lane without lights, highlighting the dangers of wrong-way driving, particularly during nighttime. Investigations into both crashes are ongoing, with authorities considering factors such as potential impairment in the Galveston incident. These events underscore the increasing risks associated with wrong-way collisions in Texas, prompting calls for enhanced safety measures on roadways.
