After a single-vehicle crash, people might assume authorities get all the facts and come to a clear conclusion. However, I have people come to me all the time with single-vehicle wrecks which completely slipped through the cracks. Unfortunately, they aren’t always treated like a high priority. So, officers may not have the time or resources they need to do a complete accident investigation. Hopefully authorities have been able to be more thorough here so the victim’s family can get clear answers.
