Motorcycle wrecks can raise unique challenges considering how many people are biased against them. A lot of folks are predisposed to blaming motorcycle riders because they think all riders are reckless daredevils. I know that most are safe drivers, but it can take a lot of evidence to convince other of that.
That’s why motorcycle wrecks especially need careful, thorough investigations. Road conditions, vehicle inspections, cell phone records, security or traffic cam video, laser mapping of the scene, witness statements, alcohol and drug tests, screening for defects or maintenance issues—investigations need to be meticulous.
Perhaps authorities here have taken steps to examine as much evidence as possible and let the facts speak for themselves. If they’re letting bias get in the way, though, then it may be important to have independent investigators look into things.
