Commentary
Right now, this accident seems pretty cut and dry. But I’d remind people that news outlets have reported very little on what happened. I don’t like reading about accidents like this and rushing to any sort of judgement. I prefer to give the driver the benefit of the doubt. Hopefully, once police have completed their investigation, we’ll have a more complete picture of what happened here.
