What I keyed on in the story: old Winnie that driver lives in, out way late at night 1130pm.
News report and even the police comments left out the obvious: Possible driver impairment, which tox tests will determine; old Winnie with most likely questionable maintenance Possibly lost its brakes?
They said possible medical issue. Driver was in his 50's and seems rather young for that. I can't think of a vehicle-into-a-home crash I ever investigated, occurring at night, that didn't involve impairment.
You don't normally see an RV out so late. Why was he out driving so late? A factor? I don't know.
Hope there is some follow up to this story; too many unanswered questions.
