After such a serious accident, my immediate concern would be if authorities were able to prioritize the accident reconstruction. Sometimes, things are so chaotic with clearing the scene and getting traffic going that important evidence can be missed. Sometimes, a thorough independent investigation can help confirm if authorities did a good job and gathered clear evidence. Other times, it can catch details that authorities let slip through the cracks. Either way, the victim’s loved ones deserve to know they’re getting the full story.
