How Did This Accident Occur?
It’s possible that people will see a young driver behind the wheel this early in the morning and just assume the people involved in the crash were being irresponsible. It’s entirely possible that an avoidable mistake led to this crash. But there have been many times where we looked into a crash where everyone assumed a driver made a mistake only for our investigations to show otherwise.
Sometimes, tires blow out. Roads can be in poor condition. Drivers experience unexpected medical episodes. Other reckless drivers can force people off-road. There’s no more reason to ignore these possibilities when a teen’s behind the wheel than when someone in their 30s or 50s or 70s is behind the wheel.
Ultimately, it’s up to the evidence to say what happened. If a driver makes a mistake, the evidence can help ensure they take responsibility. If not, the evidence can ensure whatever other problem occurred can be appropriately addressed. My hope is that officials handling this accident understand this and take steps appropriately.
