Alan Ruck<\/strong>‘s car crash last week is still a mystery in terms of cause — but cops do have a theory they’re running with for now … they think technology got the better of a human.<\/p>\n Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … investigators believe they know what caused the “Succession” star’s wreck at a pizza parlor in Hollywood, and from the sounds of it — the police are buying Alan’s story here.<\/p>\n Our sources say Alan told officers he simply didn’t know what caused the accident.<\/p>\n We’re told those who were on the scene believed him — as they saw no evidence he was under the influence, distracted or otherwise impaired during the accident<\/strong> … so, as far as they’re concerned, they believe it was, in fact, just an accident.<\/p>\n Our sources also tell us the LAPD thinks this was just a mishap arising from the fact that Alan’s truck, a Rivian R1T, is brand-spanking new and super high-tech.<\/p>\n Indeed, it is an electric truck … and it certainly looks fancy from the inside out. It also features three all-wheel drive systems — Dual Motor, Performance Dual-Motor and Quad-Motor … and depending on which one you’re on, it can go from 0-60 MPH reeeal fast.<\/p>\n We have no idea if or how any of this played a part in Alan’s sitch — but it sounds like the police think he might’ve just been in over his head handling this machine … and that it just got away from him. As a result, we’re told they’re closing the book on this case … and leaving it to insurance.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/imagez.tmz.com\/image\/a5\/16by9\/2023\/11\/02\/a51618993a7d438e9e5d941323788236_md.jpg\")
