By Kelly Balamuth on July 28, 2010

No matter how obvious the reason for an auto accident may be, the circumstances surrounding the crash need to be thoroughly investigated in order to determine what exactly happened, and whether or not negligence of any kind played a contributing role in the crash. According to a Sacramento Bee article, a white Toyota Corolla was recently involved in an accident on Highway 99 in Galt after the vehicle drove off the road before striking a bridge abutment and rolling over. Reportedly, the San Jose motorist operating the vehicle was killed in the car accident and three passengers in the car were also injured.

No further details surrounding the Sacramento car accident were made available by investigating authorities, and it was not stated whether or not another vehicle may have contributed to the crash. However, a thorough investigation will undoubtedly reveal more evidence as to what caused the crash. Vehicle accidents may be caused by dangerous road conditions or a defective auto part that leads to vehicle malfunction. Experienced investigation is required to determine the root cause of some accidents.
