People often just write off pedestrian accidents, but they need as thorough an investigation as any serious truck accident. There could always be extenuating circumstances to consider, and jumping to conclusions never did any good anyway. That’s why it’s important families make sure authorities are actually giving their situation the attention it deserves. If their answers start to come up short, independent investigators may need to pick up the slack.
