How Did This Accident Occur?
Many people who read about a crash like this would blame the motorcyclist. based on the stereotype that paints anyone who gets around on two wheels as a reckless daredevil. That stereotype is not accurate, in my experience, but it is still prevalent. I hope whoever is assigned to investigate this accident is not biased by it.
Authorities typically rely on physical evidence, witness statements and available video footage in accident investigations, but motorcycles don’t record the same data as other vehicles. Maybe the rider had some kind of connected devices that gathered similar data.
Investigators also should push for an in-depth inspection of the motorcycle to determine if a mechanical issue may have played a role in this crash.
This probe should give the Kawasaki rider and his family a clear picture of what happened on I-30.
