Commentary:
People assume that just because they are cited for a moving violation, that they automatically are faulted for the accident, which simply is not true. Like any infraction, you must first be proven guilty, and as we all know, police officers do not have a perfect record with these kinds of things. It all depends on the facts surrounding the accident, but coming across an accident where there is 100% fault/innocence is uncommon to say the least. An independent investigation could reveal more details, and get victims a closer approximation to what really happened in the crash.
