Commentary:
With single-vehicle accidents, there is always a possibility that the vehicle was the cause of the accident and not the driver. The problem is, police who investigate the scene of the accident aren’t equipped with mechanical knowledge and x-ray vision to peer into the wreckage, so a steering-column lockup would look no different than a driver error. All it would take to find out if the car caused this accident is a trained pair of eyes peering into the right places.
