How Did This Accident Occur?
You might be tempted to simply attribute this crash to driver error or fatigue, but in my experience motorcycle crashes often defy simple explanations.
What if another vehicle ran the motorcycle off the road? Was there an object in the road that caused the crash? What if the motorcycle had a mechanical issue that affected it steering or brakes?
These scenarios are more than idle speculation; I’ve seen factor such as this contribute to other crashes in my career, so I think it’s important for authorities to consider these possibilities in investigating this crash.
