Christopher Thomas Scott Injured in Car Accident in Victoria, TX

Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
While I can't add any more facts to these initial reports, the apparent disparity in the drivers' injuries raise concerns for me.
To put it simply, the public information about this crash describes events such that the pickup crashed into the driver's side of a much smaller vehicle that was, relative to the pickup, at a near stop. Yet it was the pickup driver said to be hurt while the other driver apparently was unharmed. Could that mean that something unusual occurred that led to the victim here suffering injuries that they otherwise shouldn't have? Did their seatbelt lock? Did the airbag deploy? Did their seat assembly stay intact? Maybe this is all just dumb luck, but I can't help wondering if there's more to the story than authorities have let on.
