Collision Investigation

Collision Analysis: Witness testimony, condition/type of the vehicle, physical evidence, road geometry, road features, weather conditions, environmental constraints, injury mechanism, ergonomics, technical data, statistics and road user behaviour are all taken into consideration.

Collision Reconstruction: Information from tyre marks, pedestrian throw, pedestrian speeds, reaction times, coefficient of friction values, vehicle mass, angles at impact and visibility can be mathematically modelled to estimate speeds and ascertain the possible sequence of events.

Vehicle Examination:Analysis of impact damage and contact marks can assist in estimating a vehicles speed, movement and direction.

Locus Reports: Scale CAD plans, photographs and video are used to illustrate road geometry and markings, position of witnesses, post and pre impact course of vehicles and lines of sight.

3D Collision Animation Using detailed measurements, mathematical modelling, physical evidence and witness recollection circumstances of the collision or incident can be demonstrated by constructing a 3D model. This gives a visual demonstration of events leading up to, during and post collision and can viewed from many perspectives. This is a valuable and effective tool when presenting evidence and findings at court.

Witness Statements & Interviews: Trained in all aspects of interviewing techniques and will ensure that the information obtained is concise and relevant to the investigation.
