Frequently Asked Questions
How does speed play into survivability on highways like this?
Higher speeds reduce the time a driver has to react and increase the force involved in any impact, which generally makes injuries more severe and survival less likely.
Why does seat belt use matter so much in crashes?
A seat belt keeps an occupant positioned inside the vehicle during a sudden stop or impact, which lowers the chance of being thrown and cuts the risk of serious or fatal injury.
What should families do after a fatal crash like this one?
Families are usually contacted by the medical examiner's office or police with information about the deceased, and can also request a copy of the official crash or incident report once it's completed.
How do police investigate a fatality found on a roadway?
Investigators typically examine the scene, review any available video or witness accounts, and work with the medical examiner to determine how and when the death occurred.
