How Did This Accident Occur?
I like to caution people into reading too much into how an accident happened until more facts are clear. There is no way to know what happened on Rigsby Avenue until the investigation is complete.
I expect authorities to consider usual factors like driver error or distraction, but I’m less sure that they will look into other possibilities, like software failure or a blown tire.
The injured driver and her family deserve to know as much as possible about this crash, and it’s up to investigators to provide answers to them.
