How Did This Accident Occur?

I normally caution people against reading too much into how a crash happened until more facts are available. But in this instance, that is especially true, because it’s not even clear what kind of “motorized conveyance” the injured man was using.

Was it a golf cart, an electric scooter or even a motorized wheelchair? Without knowing that, it’s hard to know how visible it was to the eastbound pickup. If the driver couldn’t see it, how could he avoid the collision?

A thorough investigation should make it clear how this crash happened, so those affected by it will have the answers they deserve.
