Reconstruction of an accident allows to determine how it happened:
- Location and configuration of impact
- Speeds at collision
- Circulating speeds of the vehicles
- Type and time of manoeuvres
- Distances and times available to drivers/riders to avoid the accident and asses the result of the accident if one of these factors has not been present (probably no accident or no injuries)
These are indispensable items to determine the causes of the accident (why it happened), and therefore the apportion of fault or liability in a trial process.
To do this, assistance of a qualified reconstructionist of accidents assures a rigorous, scientific and realistic approach to the matter.
