Commentary:
With this accident, I’m most interested in having a look at the layout of the road, and the positioning of the vehicles at the time of the crash. This could tell us quite a bit about what may have happened. Judging from the news articles, which may be inaccurate, if the driver actually crossed over the line and struck the pedestrians, then that driver would more than likely be found liable for the accident, provided the news reports are accurate.
