I certainly don’t have any information beyond what’s currently public about this accident. However, any crash involving a motorcycle accident is worth scrutiny. The fact of the matter is people are often biased against motorcyclists, and this sometimes means authorities are more focused on throwing blame around than actually gathering clear evidence. Sometimes, more thorough independent investigations show authorities did their due diligence and did good investigations. Other times, more thorough investigations can show authorities missed crucial details or jumped to conclusions. What they might say here remains to be seen.
