Even new cars have flaws in them at times that cause problems like this, even if less likely than older cars if it is a true mechanical failure. And it might be just a coincidental mechanical failure of his car too, though I'm guessing the coincidence of events for him and this just being an accident by the car itself failing because of flawed manufacturing is probably remote.
Then again, someone might have tampered with his car in the last few days. I would hope that those investigating the accident don't just look at the scene of the accident and the car, etc. But also look at where his car was at any given time over the last two days or so. Perhaps he has GPS that could be used to figure that out, and who might have been around the car or had surveillance of it during that time if it was parked somewhere.
Of course, the first step is to hopefully have a good way of measuring for alcohol, etc. in his body if that can be done with the autopsy. If he did have a lot of alcohol content, then probably doing this sort of research less useful. If he was that drunk, was he at a bar where there might b more witnesses? At home? If he was suicidal perhaps, it might help to try and track down that and figure out why he might have been that way too. That might have a lot to do with this FBI letter, etc. too.
I think the bottom line is that it is too premature to just dismiss this as an "accident" and that he was a "crazy man" when driving. Is there a history of him driving this way? I think we need to know more about investigation results and hopefully they are thorough and his friends and family ensure that it is made thorough as well.
Given the potential for what he might have been working having an effect on us all, that is why we should all stay tuned to what ultimately is turned up in this investigation, as it might be pretty important for all of us to see than another accident where even if there were criminal intent involved only involved a few individuals and not potentially people on a national or world scale being affected.
Whistleblowers now also saying that Flight 800 crash real cause was covered up as well many years later. If we'd had more scrutiny then, and in fact there was a coverup then, questioning what happened hard then might have been better to have us more definitively establish or dismiss those claims than doing so post-facto so many years later. I'm hoping that's why this isn't pushed aside now as an "accident" and people do look in to what happened with an open mind thoroughly now while the facts are still far more attainable.
Let's not be in a hurry to make this a conspiracy nor to dismiss it, nor bash each other for taking the opposite side if we try to commit to one of these sides. The rest of us who are waiting for a more complete story to be told don't want to have to sift through a lot of arguing that seems a bit pointless at this point. Conjectures of one side or the other are fine. Let's just not lock ourselves in yet.
