Wooley Law Takeaway
A collision was reported on southbound US 75 at Collins Boulevard in Richardson late Friday morning, August 28, 2026.
According to the traffic information provided, the wreck was reported at approximately 11:00 a.m. The HOV lane and left travel lane were closed while emergency crews responded to the scene.
Early information did not identify the vehicles involved, confirm whether anyone was injured, or explain what caused the collision.
HOV and Left Lane Closed After US 75 Crash at Collins Boulevard
The crash affected southbound traffic on US 75, also known as North Central Expressway, near Collins Boulevard in Richardson.
With both the HOV lane and adjacent left lane blocked, motorists approaching the collision could encounter congestion, sudden braking, emergency vehicles, and drivers attempting to merge into the remaining open lanes.
Because information about the wreck remains preliminary, it would be premature to attribute the collision to speeding, distracted driving, following too closely, an unsafe lane change, or another specific cause.

When someone is injured in a serious highway collision, evidence gathered shortly after the crash may become important in determining what happened.
Potentially important evidence may include:
Dashcam footage
