A 33-year-old San Angelo man received two citations this afternoon after losing control of his vehicle and crashing in the unit block of Houston Harte Expressway.
San Angelo Police Officer John Palmer said the man was traveling eastbound in a Honda Civic when he lost control, struck a guard rail, and hit the left front quarter portion of the vehicle. At that point, the Civic spun all the way around. After spinning, the driver hit the left back quarter portion of the vehicle, spun around again and came to rest facing eastbound.
Luckily, there were no injuries, but the driver did receive two citations.
“The driver was cited for unsafe speed, and he’s uninsured,” said Officer Palmer.

Brandy, would you tell me where the "unit block" of Houston Harte is? I've never heard that phrase before.

PermalinkMeredith,
The unit block of Houston Harte is the 0 block of Houston Harte. I know when I heard that for the first time, I asked the same thing.
Regards,
Brandy

PermalinkIf you Google it, a map will come up. It's over Chadbourne on the Houston Harte. It shows either as 0 or 0000.

PermalinkI know that, but I didn't know what a "unit block" was. I've never heard it phrased that way.

PermalinkIt is not a common phrase and somewhat incorrect anyway. Numbers are identified as ones, tens, hundreds, etc. Blocks are identified similarly but it would sound odd to say "ones block" or "tens block" so they use unit which means there is no hundreds involved.
