Commentary on Motorcycle Accident on Highway 94 in Trinity County
In reports like these, it's common to see authorities bring up all kinds of possible factors, such as speeding or intoxicated driving. Those are both common factors, of course, and they'd warrant consideration here, especially if some local bar illegally over-0served the driver and contributed to the crash. But something I always caution folks about is jumping to conclusions just because some factors seem more likely than others. Single-vehicle wrecks, early morning accidents, motorcycle accidents--these are all things that people carry a lot of bias about, which only makes thorough independent accident reconstructionists so much more crucial. Getting folks the help they need means getting them as much information as possible, and jumping to conclusions isn't going to accomplish that.
