Commentary
I get calls all the time from folks affected by single-vehicle accidents. They can leave all kinds of doubts and questions. It's only natural that people will wonder if authorities are really giving the accident the attention it needs. Over decades of work, I've found a few key questions that can help assure families about their possible paths forward.
Did investigators have the time, tools, and training needed to conduct a full investigation? Authorities often have to balance multiple responsibilities, and when resources are stretched thin, crash investigations may not receive the attention they require. Did they take the time to carefully reconstruct the accident and rule out all possible contributing factors?
Did they consider whether vehicle defects played a role? It’s easy to assume driver error in a single-vehicle crash, but mechanical failures—such as brake issues, steering malfunctions, or even seatbelt or airbag failures—could have made the accident worse. Was the vehicle thoroughly inspected for such issues?
Did they secure all available electronic evidence? Data from the vehicle’s Engine Control Module (ECM) could reveal crucial details about speed, braking, and steering before the crash. Additionally, cellphone records, GPS data, and any nearby surveillance footage might provide further insight. Have authorities taken steps to preserve and review this evidence?
If authorities can provide satisfactory answers to these questions, it's usually a sign they've done good, thorough investigations. Otherwise, if their efforts are found to be lacking, that can be a family's sign to have a second set of eyes look things over. Either way, the priority should be to assure a family that they're getting the whole story.
