Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman

With motorcycle wrecks, I’m always a bit more cautious than usual reading details from authorities. The reality is a lot of people look at motorcyclists negatively regardless of what kind of facts they have. When officers share this negative bias, it can result in incomplete or mistake investigations. It’s always prudent to consider having independent investigators look into a situation to ensure authorities didn’t miss anything important like a vehicle defect or road hazards. But when a motorcycle is involved, I can’t imagine a scenario where anything short of an independent accident reconstruction would be reliable.
