Accident Reconstruction & Vehicle Analysis
According to the National Highway Traffic Administration, vehicle and 18-wheeler accidents happen every minute of the day. With so many accidents, there are multiple reasons for car accidents and many times, there are differences of opinion as to what or who caused a crash.
McDowell Owens’ engineers perform comprehensive investigations, data collection, and analyses of crash sites to successfully determine the history of a vehicular crash and the factors that caused it. We utilize up-to-date technology to extract and evaluate pertinent information from the crash site, vehicles and components, drivers and occupants, photographs, manufacturers, roadway conditions and documents. Through computer analysis and review of physical evidence (including electrical and mechanical systems), we can determine vehicle speed, trajectory, and mechanical, metallurgical and/or electrical failures.
Specific areas of accident reconstruction expertise include:
Through scientific investigation, testing, modeling and analysis, we go “back in time” to reconstruct the accident and answer these questions.
Our Accident Reconstructionists use sophisticated equipment and tools in their analysis, including:
- Commercial Vehicle/Trucking Crashes
- Single & Multi-Vehicle Crashes
- Vehicle/Pedestrian Incidents
- Occupant Kinematics
- Component Analysis & Testing
- Restraint Systems Analysis & Testing
- Vehicle Dynamics Testing
