Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
People tend to brush pedestrian accidents aside, but they need thorough investigations just like any serious accident. The problem is that authorities don't always agree. Even if officers would take the time and effort to do a good job, their supervisors may rush them to move on to priorities they feel are more important. The victims and families involved, though, may be left without answers if that happens. That's why it's sometimes best when there's a second set of eyes looking things over to ensure nothing slips through the cracks.
