Police allege that alcohol contributed to the crash. I can’t confirm if that’s true or not. If it is, though, it wouldn’t be too surprising. It’s almost always the cause of a wrong way crash. If that did happen here, though, have authorities looked into the possibility a local alcohol provider illegally over-served that driver? As far as I recall, every case I’ve handled involving a driver on the wrong side of a highway also involved a negligent alcohol provider who recklessly served someone to that point of intoxication so extreme they couldn’t tell which way was which. It wouldn’t be right if a provider like that contributed to this crash only to be let off the hook because no one bothered investigating them. If nothing else, it’s a possibility that would be irresponsible to ignore.
