How Did This Accident Occur?
When it comes to pedestrians hit by a truck on a major roadway, people often assume the pedestrian was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. That’s a possibility worth looking into, but there could be other explanations. For example, was the victim safely walking along the shoulder? Were they clearly visible and avoidable? Was there some kind of emergency going on?
People too often look at these situations just in terms of wrong versus right, but my experience is that they’re often very complex. That’s why it’s important for investigations to sort out the full context so there can be a definitive explanation of how everything could have been avoided. If nothing else, this can help ensure the victim’s loved ones are getting the full story.
