Based on this news report, it remains unclear what happened as the investigation is currently ongoing. Authorities will look into other factors such as whether or not any of the involved drivers were under the influence of alcohol or drugs? Did excessive speed or distracted driving play a role? Was the driver negligent in any other way? We trust officials are looking into these and other factors in order to determine precisely what occurred here to help figure out liability.
In such cases where negligence or wrongdoing may have been a factor, those injured in an auto accident and not held at fault are entitled to personal injury lawsuit against any given negligent motorist.
