Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman

I’m certainly not here to confirm nor deny anything about what may have contributed to this accident. On the contrary, it’s my experience that people are often too dismissive of accidents involving motorcyclists. Rather than actually rely on thorough investigations to gather exhaustive evidence, they just jump to conclusions or take initial reports at face value.

In my experience, victims’ loved ones don’t want an easy explanation, nor do they want to be coddled. They want to know they’re getting the full story. That often requires considering even unlikely possible factors, if only to rule them out. Have authorities done this, or did they simply rush to the easy conclusion and move on without a second thought?
