Commentary:
Many people have the idea that all single-vehicle accidents are solely the fault of the driver, when this is simply not always the case. Cars experience mechanical failures all the time, and there is always the distinct possibility that is was caused this accident as well. We always hear about vehicle recalls in the news, unfortunately accidents have to happen before a manufacturer will issue a recall. I’m not saying that is what has happened here, but people need to be aware that investigations need to be finished before we jump to conclusions based on a news article.
