Commentary on Jason Bishop Car Accident in Wise County
Late at night, a single-vehicle wreck raises some red flags. That's because this sort of thing is often the result of things like distraction, fatigue, and alcohol. Those are worth considering, of course. Alcohol is especially concerning since investigations often show a local alcohol provider is liable under dram shop law for illegally over-serving the victim. But a proper investigation must also consider less common factors. Mechanical defects, tire failures, road hazards, missing signage, poor lighting, a medical condition, some reckless driver that fled the scene, etc. Too often, families ask me to look into crashes where it turned out authorities completely overlooked important details just because they didn't seem likely. That's why I can't help wondering if the right steps are being taken to get answers here.
