Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman

With motorcycle wrecks, a concern to keep in mind is if authorities were thorough and avoided jumping to conclusions. A lot of people are negatively biased against motorcyclists. This can lead to shallow investigations based on assumptions rather than facts. I’ve had cases where it took more thorough independent investigations to secure evidence and correct mistaken crash reports. Maybe authorities here have been more careful, but it’s something people should keep in mind rather than just taking for granted the investigations will be handled properly.
