All of American Accident Reconstruction collision investigators are qualified vehicle examiners.
This is another area where we excel at, combining knowledge of both a vehicle's condition and crash dynamics.
This is important because eventhough a vehicle may have a defect, it is necessary to know both the vehicle and the collision to determine if it contributed to the collision. The same results are acheived by analyzing another examiner's findings or examining the vehicles ourselves.
But an examination is not limited to mechanical defects. The analysis of headlights or brake lights to determine if they were on at the time of the crash can be critical to a case.
Additionally, understanding and analyzing a vehicle's damage profile can allow analysis of the vehicle's velocity and orientation at the time of impact.
