After a single-vehicle crash, a concern that needs to be addressed is how thorough authorities were in their investigations. Sometimes, these incidents are treated as a low priority. That can mean incomplete or rushed investigations, as authorities need a proper amount of time and equipment to full investigate a serious crash. So if it turns out authorities aren’t going to get the answers needed after a crash, that’s when a more thorough independent investigation may prove more fruitful. It remains to be seen if that would be needed here.
