With motorcycle accidents, my concern is always if they’re really getting enough attention. Authorities sometimes are quick to blame the rider without considering any kind of extenuating circumstances. Were there issues with the roadway? Did a mechanical issue occur? Was the victim illegally over-served by an alcohol provider? Did another driver cause the accident and flee the scene? It might surprise people what all police can let slip through the cracks. Maybe authorities here were more thorough, but it’s possible that independent investigations would catch something they missed.
