Commentary by Michael Grossman
In my experience, teenagers and motorcyclists are both types of drivers who are two often brushed aside after an accident. People just assume the worst, then jump to conclusions instead of waiting for the facts. What's worse is even the authorities can often jump to conclusions instead of letting the investigations speak for themselves. As such, it's best people reserve their judgment until there's been a proper, fair, unbiased investigation into what happened here. A driver's age or the number of wheels they're on shouldn't change that.
