Investigators have a lot of questions to answer while they are examining all the forensic evidence left at the scene. Authorities will be focusing primarily on the conditions of the young driver prior to the accident by analyzing whether or not factors such as excessive speed, distracted driving, or intoxication played a role in the incident. In the event that the driver is found responsible for this accident, the family members will likely be granted the right to pursue a wrongful death claim.
