Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
Hopefully people let the evidence speak for itself here rather than make any hasty assumptions. It's not that I distrust any specific investigators here. It's simply that folks tend to unfairly assume all motorcyclists are reckless regardless of how safe they actually are. As a result, riders can end up accused of causing an accident when in reality they fell victim to factors beyond their control. I can't say if that happened here, but I see no reason why this man's death should warrant any less benefit of the doubt than a victim in a typical car would get. I just hope authorities here share that notion and get the victim's loved ones the answers they deserve.
