Commentary:
If the local news is to believed, and the offending vehicle in this accident did in-fact fail to yield, as they suggest, then people may automatically assume that this case is automatically their fault, when in reality, moving violations and fault are not always mutually exclusive. Further investigation could show a completely different fact pattern than the one authorities put together at the scene. However, barring any major details missing from the news report, the driver that failed to yield in this accident is probably going to be facing some tough questions and heavy consequences.
