Commentary on Motorcycle Accident US 281 in San Antonio
I see some comments about this crash already assuming the motorcyclist was being reckless. Is that a likely explanation? Quite frankly, yes. But jumping to conclusions isn't going to help anyone. It's important to consider all possible factors if only to ensure a victim's loved ones get the answers they deserve. This could have happened due to a tire blowout. Maybe someone cut off the motorcyclist. Maybe a local bar illegally over-served the driver and can be held accountable for doing so. It's not about whether or not something is likely. It's about getting answers, and that's not going to happen with folks jumping to conclusions, common as they may be.
