When crashes involve weather events like this, my concern is that authorities won't give them the attention they deserve. Maybe this was all just some unavoidable tragedy, but there could be more to the story. What if, for example, the victim's seatbelt failed due to a defect? What if the wind actually caused a cargo shift because some company loaded the trailer improperly? What if an employer failing to repair its vehicles and forcing drivers to operate shoddy equipment contributed to the crash? Even if something seems unlikely, a grieving family should at least know they're getting the full story. It's unclear if anyone is taking the steps to ensure that happens here.
