Accident Information

Authorities are working hard to determine what specifically caused the crash. Forensic teams will examine photographs of the crash site and inspect the vehicle for mechanical issues or system failure. Officials will also consider if drunk driving, drug abuse, negligence, distracted driving, or reckless behavior played any part in the events leading up to the crash.

Also, by law, drivers are expected to decrease speed and give the right of way to pedestrians in marked and unmarked crossing zones. Based on the case, officials have still not confirmed if the unidentified pedestrian had been walking in a marked or unmarked zone down Sweetwater and Troy.
