How Did This Accident Occur?
With any single-vehicle accident, there is bound to be speculation that the driver did something wrong. I’m not going to pretend that doesn’t happen, but it’s also important to consider possible factors—likely or not—drivers can’t always control. As much as investigators should look into things like distracted driving and unsafe speeds, for example, they should also look into possible vehicle defects, road hazards, medical emergencies, issues with signage or lighting, or even hit-and-runs. That can take significant effort and particular tools which authorities don’t always have the resources or motivation to provide. So, if a family ever feels like their situation isn’t getting enough attention to rule out all of these other possible factors, then the crash might be better off in the hands of independent investigators.
