I would say that the spacing could be improved, everything comes at you at once and the impact is lost a little by it. I realise a paragraph break takes up characters, not sure how full this story is, but they really keep tension up and make it easier to read.
Setting this up from outside looking in can be tricky. Since it is not first person you feel distant from the tragedy of the accident. Good description!
Writing in the second person point-of-view makes this piece seem like a Choose Your Own Adventure game. I think that such a series would be quite fun to read.
We could introduce two choices two sequels and the end of each episode. Those sequels would each have two choices to sequel, and so on. Maybe we should start something like that?
