One thing I’d hope to see is that authorities were being careful and thorough in their investigations. Frankly, motorcyclists often get swept under the rug, as people just assume they’re all reckless drivers. That obviously happens, but unless there is clear evidence, no one should be saying what did or didn’t happen here. It could be something common, or it could be highly unusual circumstances that require more thorough independent investigations. At the end of the day, those involved deserve to know they’re getting the whole story. Is that happening here?
