People might see claims of a driver running a stop sign and assume that makes everything open-and-shut. However, people involved in a serious car accident still need evidence telling their side of the story. Authorities tend to only investigate whatever they need for potential charges or citations. Most everything else requires independent investigations from accident reconstructionists whose priority is to gather all the facts. If authorities were more thorough than normal here, that would be good news. It’s just not the sort of thing I’d ever take for granted.
