Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
After any serious car wreck, it’s natural to focus on what’s immediately visible: damaged vehicles, crash debris or skid marks. But often, the key to understanding what really happened lies in the unseen details. When a vehicle runs off the road or strikes a fixed object, it's easy to stop at assumptions. But deeper questions deserve answers.
Did the authorities thoroughly investigate the crash? Single-vehicle crashes in rural areas during off-hours can suffer from minimal investigation. Was the scene fully documented with modern tools like laser mapping or drone imaging? Did anyone attempt to reconstruct the vehicle's path before the impact or review the driver’s condition and actions leading up to the wreck? These are essential steps that can reveal whether something unusual happened, or if this was more than just a driver losing control.
Has anyone looked into the possibility that a vehicle defect caused the crash? When a pickup strikes a guardrail and overturns, questions about mechanical failure should be on the table. Could a brake issue, steering malfunction or even an electrical fault have played a role? If no one conducted a post-crash mechanical inspection, that possibility remains unanswered. Just because a vehicle looks intact before impact doesn’t mean it was functioning properly.
Has all the electronic data relating to the crash been collected? Most newer vehicles, including this model, are packed with data: engine control modules, GPS logs and safety system alerts. These can show speed, braking, seatbelt use and even whether the truck detected a hazard before the crash. If investigators didn’t secure and analyze that data quickly, valuable insight may be lost.
As with many early crash reports, the surface details only go so far. It takes asking these deeper questions to move past guesses and toward real understanding. That’s how accountability is found, and how future crashes can be prevented.
Takeaways:
- It's unclear whether investigators fully examined what led to the crash.
- Mechanical failure could be a factor but may go unexamined without a vehicle inspection.
- Electronic data could reveal crucial details, if anyone pulled it in time.
