Commentary by Attorney Michael Grossman
A lot of people think that a situation is open-and-shut when someone is being blamed. However, anyone involved in a serious accident needs clear evidence telling their side of the story. Doing so often requires considering some key questions early on.
1. Did investigators have the right tools and training to fully reconstruct the crash?
Understanding exactly how the vehicles moved through the intersection—who had the right of way, who entered first, and at what speed—requires more than just witness statements. Without proper scene analysis and measurements, important details may have been missed.
2. Was either vehicle inspected for mechanical issues?
If the Dodge failed to yield, it's fair to ask whether the driver simply made a bad decision or if something like brake failure played a role. Unless someone took the time to inspect the vehicle, we may never know.
3. Was any electronic data collected from the vehicles?
Modern vehicles often store crucial information like speed, throttle position, and braking. That data could help confirm or correct the initial conclusions—but only if someone preserved it in time.
If authorities can clearly answer questions like these, it's generally a sign they've been thorough in their investigations. If they can't, it gives folks an opportunity have another set of eyes look things over. That way, they can be sure nothing important has slipped through the cracks.
Takeaways:
- It’s unclear whether the scene was fully reconstructed with the right tools.
- A mechanical failure could have contributed and should be ruled out.
- Vehicle data might clarify key details—if it was collected promptly.
