When a single-vehicle crash results in serious injuries, it’s important to make sure no crucial steps were missed during the investigation. Here are a few key questions I've picked up throughout my career that can help guide that process:
- Was the crash scene fully documented by investigators?
Skid marks, road conditions, and the final position of the vehicle can provide important clues. If investigators didn’t have enough time or the right tools, vital context could be missing. - Was the vehicle inspected for any mechanical defects?
Issues like brake failure, steering problems, or tire blowouts can cause a crash. Malfunctions in seatbelts or airbags can also make injuries worse. These kinds of problems require a detailed inspection that doesn’t always happen unless someone insists on it early. - Was any electronic data from the vehicle preserved?
Many vehicles record information such as speed, braking, and steering inputs leading up to a crash. If retrieved quickly, this data can help clarify what really happened.
Asking these questions helps ensure folks know their crash is getting the attention it deserves. Either authorities have satisfactory answers, or they can find out there are gaps in the story that need further attention from independent investigators.
