Commentary on Timothy Suer Tractor-Trailer Accident in Greenville
When it comes to a crash involving a single commercial truck, it's important to avoid jumping to conclusions. Folks tend to just assume that the driver did something wrong. That's possible, obviously, and I wouldn't suggest ignoring possibilities like speeding, fatigue, or distracted driving. But even unlikely possibilities warrant attention to ensure nothing important slips through the cracks. After all, there are no doubt folks out there who need answers about what happened to the victim.
That's why it's important investigators are experienced enough to look into these possible factors. One possibility, for example, is mechanical issues. I rarely see authorities alone look into this, and it usually requires steps from independent accident reconstructionists who have the proper tools and training to ensure something like that doesn't slip through the cracks. Are those steps being taken here?
