Commentary:
This accident is more than likely going to be the fault of whichever vehicle ran the red-light, as the news report indicates. But what if the news report is wrong? The majority of these news articles are written based on brief police report releases, which more often than not are discredited later on down the road. Why? Because these news reports are written by police officers who are directing traffic and tending to victims at the same time. Needless to say, many important details can be overlooked in the chaos after a crash.
