A horrifying video that has been spreading on the internet serves as an important reminder to everyone that children should always be properly restrained when in a car.
On Sunday, an accident left two infants wandering across a Texas highway. The event was caught on video.
On Sunday, August 11, Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez reported a two-car crash on Interstate 10 in Freeport. The incident caused one car to flip many times, resulting in the “ejection” of an adult and two small children.
Initially, Facebook shared a video of the accident’s immediate aftermath.
“The children stood alone, which was a positive indication.” According to the person who first provided the footage, it was just discarded.

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office informed Chron that the driver will likely face charges as part of an ongoing investigation into the cause of the collision.
It’s unclear if the children were in a car seat or properly strapped when the tragedy occurred.
A neighboring hospital received the youngsters and reported their stable but serious condition. There were no injuries to the occupants of the second car.
These infants were under someone’s care. I hope they recover without any difficulties. I ask you to join me in praying for their recovery from this horrific occurrence.
