The Legal Details:

Because speed is believed to have been a factor in this crash, the motorcycle driver is likely considered to be at fault. Investigation details will reveal if any other factors contributed to the crash, however. With the details we currently have, it seems as though the motorcyclist caused the collision by drifting into the other lane while speeding, but sometimes, other factors can create nuance in the case. For example, if the Mitsubishi driver was found to be impaired or was also speeding, they could also be held accountable for the collision.
