Brown County, TX — June 16, 2024, Robert Blair was injured following a single-vehicle car accident at around 5:50 p.m. on Highway 279.
According to officials, the incident happened at Highway 279 and P.R. 15, just north of Lake Brownwood.
It appears that 77-year-old Robert Blair was in a Dodge Avenger said to be traveling northbound along the highway. At P.R. 15, while attempting a right turn, the Dodge reportedly traveled off the corner of the roadway where it crashed into a utility pole. Blair had serious injuries as a result. No one else was reportedly involved in the crash.
At this time, additional details can’t be confirmed.

Hopefully steps were taken to ensure authorities handled all of this carefully. Frankly, single-vehicle wrecks are something they don’t often prioritize, and even when they do investigate things, they’re often just looking for someone to blame. That can allow important details to slip through the cracks, such as in a case I handled a while back where they overlooked a victim’s seatbelt being defect. It took more thorough independent investigations to ensure the victim was able to tell their side of the story. Hopefully officials handling this incident didn’t make those same mistakes, but it’s unfortunately common.
