How Did This Accident Occur?

With so few details available in the news, I wouldn’t want to jump to conclusions. This all could be the result of anything from texting and driving to a medical emergency to unsafe speeds to vehicle defects. What’s important is making sure investigations are thorough enough to cover all these possibilities.

I’ve been a part of hundreds of commercial vehicle accident investigations, and it’s frustrating how often authorities just skim surface-level details and simply move on. Meanwhile, there can be all kinds of crucial evidence beneath the surface that is time-sensitive and needs to be secured ASAP to get victims and families the answers they deserve.

This is why the early days following wrecks like this are the best time to follow up with authorities. If it seems they’re making an effort to thoroughly investigate both likely and unlikely possible factors, that can be reassuring. But if it seems like they’re treating the crash as a low priority and letting questions go unanswered, steps can be taken to bring in more thorough independent professionals who will leave no stone unturned.
