Vehicle Accident Reconstruction

Through various analytical methods and tools, we are able to provide our clients with a comprehensive analysis of vehicle accidents. We investigate accidents involving  single or multiple vehicles, tractor-trailers, motorcycles and pedestrian impacts.  Our office also examines vehicle fires, tire/tread separation and possible manufacturer defects.

Primary Factors Analyzed in Accident Reconstruction

• Post-incident scene inspection and evaluation
• Vehicle dynamics through analysis of vehicle mass, speed, energy, direction of travel, direction of travel after impact(s), change in speed after impact(s)
• Braking characteristics of vehicle(s) involved
• Roadway conditions
• Scene geometry
• Driver perception and reaction time
• Eyewitness accounts and statements

Valuable information is available in modern vehicles in the form of data recorded by various systems in the vehicle.  Data commonly survives even in cases with damage as great as this.
