How Did This Accident Occur?
Many people, when they hear about accidents involving motorcycles, are quick to assume that the motorcyclist must have been the one at fault. While this remains a distinct possibility, I’m not about to jump to that conclusion without more information. Why? Because I have been in this line of business for over three decades. In that time, I have seen plenty of similar cases in which thorough investigation managed to uncover evidence of causes that went against the grain of stereotype.
To be clear, I’m not insinuating that I have more information about this specific accident than is already available to the public. As far as I am aware, human error on the part of either driver—whether due to distraction, fatigue, impairment, or something else entirely—remains on the table as a possible cause. However, I just want to point out that, hypothetically, the wreck could have been caused by something gone wrong with one or the other of the vehicles themselves.
Take the motorcycle, for example; while smaller than passenger vehicles, they are still complex machines. Could something have gone wrong with the steering mechanism or the brakes? Have tire failure or throttle problems been considered? And honestly, the same questions could be asked of the passenger car.
Beyond that, there is the fact that the passenger vehicle overturned. Most people are unaware of this, but the rollover tests that car manufacturers are required to pass do not actually do a very good job of simulating real world scenarios. I would be interested to know whether or not a design flaw played a role the the fact that it rolled over.
Hopefully investigators—whether the authorities or a third party—get in-depth inspections done on both vehicles. That is what will be able to shed light on any mechanical malfunctions, product defects, or design flaws that had a hand in the wreck which might otherwise have flown unnoticed under the radar. After all, the people affected by this accident—especially the loved ones left behind by the victim—deserve more than the vague assumptions that often result from surface-level investigation.
