Commentary on Motorcycle Accident on 82nd Street in Lubbock
There isn't really any information here from which to draw conclusions, yet people often do so anyway when there's a motorcyclist involved. That's due to the fact that people are quick to assume motorcyclists were being reckless and putting people in danger. While those drivers are certainly out there, I've helped enough motorcyclists over the years to know that they are as safe and responsible as anyone on the road--often more so, due to how many larger vehicle drivers don't keep an eye out for motorcyclists. For that reason, it's often important to make sure there are thorough independent investigations from professionals who put aside bias and let the evidence speak for itself. Were those steps taken here?
