Commentary
Accidents involving disabled vehicles typically have a few different moving parts. There are several questions that need to be considered. How much time passed between the vehicle breaking down and the accident? Did the person who crashed into the disabled vehicle have time to avoid the accident? Did the owner of the disabled vehicle have the opportunity to move it out of lanes of traffic? Liability for an accident can fall on either the owner of the vehicle, or the person who crashed into them depending on the answers to these questions. There are a lot of details missing from news reports, and all of those will need to be answered before we’re able to get a really complete picture of how this accident will play out.
