It is admirable that Sarnia police posted a photo of an unidentified vehicle that reportedly struck a loading dock at Sarnia’s Lambton Mall on Tuesday, December 9, 2025. However no explanation is available about where exactly this occurred or how it occurred.
Generally, loading docks are expected to be in low speed areas where large trucks are able to drive and deliver or pick-up items. There should not be sufficient distance to ramp up enough acceleration to cause a high speed collision. Yet the above photo indicates the striking vehicle had be moving at a considerable speed to cause the visible damage.
When such incidents occur there is an obvious concern that a sudden, unintended acceleration occurred. If the vehicle was of recent vintage it might be equipped with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) which would automatically apply braking even if the driver failed to do so. But absolutely no information has been provided as to what type of vehicle was involved.
Is it because digital photos are so costly to create and display that this basic information is not provided to the public? Maybe news reporters are running out of ink in their feather pens to complete their manuscripts?
