072919 DRIVER MISSES ROAD ENDS UP IN CREEK BED About 5:30 am Monday Jonathan Peterson, 34, of Conroe, was northbound on FM 1485 at Kiss Cemetery in a Dodge Charger he had just purchased. As he approached Kidd Cemetery where the road goes from two lanes to one, he said the driver in the left lane would not let him over. Due to his speed, he avoided the guardrail, traveled through the grass and landed some 15-feet below the road surface in a creek bed. East Montgomery County Fire Department responded and found Peterson to be uninjured. FM 1485 was closed down until approximately 8:30 am as Saddle Creek Heavy Duty Wrecker had to maneuver the vehicle which was partially under the roadway to retrieve it. In addition, TxDOT was on the scene requested HAZMAT International to the scene. Due to gasoline and fluids in the water, the creek will need to be dammed and pumped out and rocks stripped of fluids.
