How Did This Accident Occur?
With any single-vehicle crash, there will be common factors to consider—unsafe speeds, distracted driving, fatigue, etc. That’s all stuff authorities tend to focus on, but this can be a problem when their efforts don’t extend beyond what’s immediately obvious at the crash scene.
For example, what if some sort of vehicle defect led to this crash? Did authorities preserve the vehicle for further inspection? Was the vehicle towed to a wreck yard without documenting damage first? Do authorities even have the right tools to rule out or diagnose something as complex as a possible manufacturing defect? Too often, I come across accident investigations where these less likely possible factors get written off before proper consideration. That’s when important evidence starts to slip through the cracks.
At the end of the day, families should at least be certain they’re getting all the facts. This is especially important when the victim isn’t around to tell their side of the story. That’s up to the evidence to do for them. So, either authorities can show they’re working to get all of that evidence, or there may need to be independent professionals picking up the slack if they’re not meeting expectations.
