Anytime an accident involves pedestrians, cyclists, or people on scooters, my concern is whether or not the incident got the attention it deserved. Not all department prioritize accident reconstruction, and accidents like this tend to fall even lower on a department’s list of priorities. This is why it’s important for victims and families involved to follow up with authorities as soon as they can. If authorities can address their concerns and questions, it’s generally a sign they’re taking things seriously. But if it seems like their responses come up short, that’s when there may need to be more thorough independent investigations.
