People generally jump to conclusions when it comes to pedestrian accidents. However, the law is nuanced, and it’s important to know the whole story surrounding what went wrong. There may have been some kind of emergency. The pedestrian may have been in a well-lit area. They may have been on the shoulder or by a disabled vehicle. Alcohol may have contributed to the accident. Likely or not, investigations need to consider these kinds of possible factors, otherwise they may leave the victim’s loved ones with doubts. At the end of the day, those who lose a loved one should at least be certain they’re getting the whole story. It remains to be seen if that ever happened here.
