Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
When early reports point to “inattention” as the cause of a crash, it can be tempting to consider the matter settled. But when someone is seriously injured, that kind of surface-level explanation often falls short. A full investigation is the only way to ensure the facts are clear and complete.
Is the crash receiving the full investigative attention it deserves?
Intersection collisions require careful scene reconstruction to confirm who had the right-of-way, what signals were in place, and how the vehicles entered the intersection. If that work wasn’t done immediately—or was based solely on initial statements—key pieces of the puzzle may already be missing.
Has anyone looked into whether a mechanical issue contributed to the crash?
While distraction is a common factor, it’s not the only possible one. Brake failure, electronic system faults, or steering problems in either vehicle could have caused or worsened the collision. Without a proper mechanical inspection, those possibilities remain open.
Is crash data and digital evidence being preserved?
Both the GMC and BMW likely recorded key data in the moments before the crash—speed, brake application, and steering inputs. Phone records may also be relevant if distraction is suspected, and nearby traffic cameras could offer visual confirmation. But all of this evidence is time-sensitive and must be collected promptly to be useful.
For those dealing with serious injuries, broad explanations rarely provide closure. Only a detailed, timely investigation can ensure the full story comes to light.
Key Takeaways:
- Intersection crashes need full reconstruction—not assumptions based on early reports.
- Mechanical issues can mimic distraction—and must be ruled out by inspection.
- Crash data, phone records, and camera footage can offer clarity—but must be secured quickly.
