Often, accident reconstruction experts are concerned about whether or not a person’s reactionary measures were appropriate. And, a proper
assessment of appropriate reactionary measures requires that the crash reconstructionist know when a danger (pedestrian, vehicle, object) became
visible and readily identifiable as a hazard requiring an immediate response.
Frequently, hazards become more readily identifiable over time. For example, there may be obstructions, such as trees or bushes that hinder sight
line as a motorist approaches an intersection. Or, weather, such as fog or darkness, might diminish the visibility distance of a pedestrian. Therefore,
when preparing our expert reports, the accident reconstructionists at Crash Data Services, LLC take into account any and all factors that played a role
in the collision.
