Commentary
I think most would look at an accident like this an assume that the driver had done something to cause it. If we’re being honest, that’s definitely a possibility. But I don’t think anyone is doing themselves any favors by jumping the gun. I’ve seen my share of accidents in which the cause seems very obvious at the start, and then police started to investigate, and it turned out there was something wrong with the car, or something like that. I prefer to give drivers the benefit of the doubt, so I think it would be best to wait until all the facts are in on this one before speculating on what happened.
