Car Accidents in Tomball
Where do Tomball car accidents happen?
Tomball car crashes cluster on SH-249 and FM 2920. Because Tomball is in Harris County, cases are filed downtown at 201 Caroline.
Tomball car crashes happen where a small town meets freeway traffic. SH-249 brings northwest Harris County commuters into Tomball at freeway speed, and the exits at FM 2920 and Spring Cypress Road back up onto the main lanes. FM 2920 is both Tomball’s Main Street and a through route, so downtown drivers, gravel trucks, and commuters share it. Spring Cypress Road and FM 2978 carry traffic from the new subdivisions to the same intersections. Because Tomball is in Harris County, a car accident case is filed in Houston at 201 Caroline, even though the crash happened about 45 minutes away.
