Auto Accident Reconstruction and Accident Investigation

When Accuracy Counts . . .

Insurance companies and lawyers must have accurate accident reconstructions to determine liability. Even a correct police report containing weather and road conditions or traffic light malfunctions does not include all the variable physical evidence at an accident scene.

For instance, during accident analysis, a police report may not accurately assess critical elements of speed, skid marks, conservation of energy and momentum, points of impact, crush damage, gouges, reaction distances, line-of-sight, driver actions, and mechanical, electrical, and electronic system failures, such as analysis of ABS brakes, airbags, alleged brake and steering failures, tire failures, and light bulb analyses to determine if headlights, brake lights, hazard, or turn signal lights were operative. Nor can a police report correlate the biomechanical aspects (see Biomechanical Engineering) of bodily injury with the accident facts.

There’s Only One Choice . . .

Accident reconstructionists trained in the proper methodology for data gathering, site measurements, and photography are essential to a thorough investigation, analysis, reconstruction, and successful resolution of any liability claim. Bison's expert testimony as an expert witness can make all the difference in the courtroom.

Bison’s professionally licensed engineers, are uniquely qualified to apply conservation of energy and momentum and other physics principles to provide thorough scientific data.

Analytical capabilities are enhanced by staged vehicle impact testing using state-of-the-art DAQ (Data Acquisition) and Accelerometer Systems that facilitate occupant impact testing, response documentation, and acceleration profiles, in addition to range of motion and injury potential assessments for:
