As open-and-shut as these preliminary reports may seem, there really aren’t any simple motorcycle accidents. Unfortunately, a lot of people are negatively biased against motorcyclists, and this can impact official investigations. I’ve had cases in the past where officers jumped to conclusions or got details wrong, and it took second investigations to set the record straight. It’s entirely possible authorities here have been more careful to ensure the evidence is allowed to speak for itself. But anytime victims or families feel that certain details aren’t adding up, it can be prudent to trust those instincts.
