Just after noon today a Montgomery County Hospital District ambulance was getting ready to enter SH 99 from US 59. The unit with a driver and medic did not have a patient. As they drove west bound on the access road they approached Valley Ranch Drive. It was there a driver pulled out in front of them and was t-boned by the ambulance. The medic and two persons from the vehicle were transported to the hospital in stable condition. This is not the first crash at the intersection as there several a week, Vehicles coming from Valley Ranch must stop for cross traffic on the feeder. However many motorists believe it is a 4-way stop and pull out in front of cross traffic. DPS Sgt. Barnhill was in contact with officials not long after the crashes started happening. stop signs were then installed along with signs indicating “CROSS TRAFFIC DOES NOT STOP” in addition WRONG WAY signs were moved further from the intersection so they could be seen. Still motorists ignore the cross traffic does not stop and pull out into the moving traffic lane resulting in a crash.
