Commentary
I know that many tend to look at accidents like this and blame the drivers without really bothering to get a full grasp on what happened, or waiting for all the facts to come in. There’s no doubt that drivers cause accidents like this all the time, but they don’t cause all of them. It’s possible that there was something wrong with the victim’s vehicle. Perhaps he had a tire that blew out. In those instances, liability for the crash could fall on a manufacturer. Again, we don’t have all the facts yet, so it’s best to hold off judgement.
