How Did This Accident Occur?
It’s possible this was something pretty typical, like a driver going too fast downhill or looking at their phone and leaving their lane. However, I’ve seen a lot of situations where commercial vehicles going downhill lose control. It raises questions about potential maintenance issues. Was this van being regularly inspected and repaired? Or, were the brakes worn, and it left the driver unable to properly control the vehicle while coming down the hill? That would require inspecting the vehicle closely and pulling the company’s maintenance records. It’s also important to inspect whatever repair shop is working on the vehicle—I had a case very recently where a negligent repair shop caused a deadly collision.
