How Did This Accident Occur?
This crash happened at a time where driver error or fatigue should be considered as possible factors. I have no doubt that investigators will look into those possibilities, but will they inspect the Honda for possible mechanical problems? Maybe not.
But I’ve learned over 30-plus years of investigating vehicle accidents that there is no substitute for a thorough investigation. Authorities likely will review evidence from the scene, witness statements, data from the Honda’s engine control module and any available traffic cam footage, but they may not have the time or expertise for a forensic examination of the car. That must be done before the car is repaired or scrapped.
