A crash involving a semi-truck can present significant challenges for investigators. A crash involving two trucks is only bound to be more chaotic. A police department that doesn’t prioritize accident reconstruction might not give officers the time or tools they need to do a proper investigation. As such, getting to the bottom of what happened here might require more thorough independent accident reconstructions to get to the bottom of what happened.
