Collision Reconstruction
We use engineering principles to determine how and why collisions occur and to identify contributing factors. Our collision reconstruction experts analyze roadway evidence, vehicle damage, electronic data, and maintenance records to reconstruct vehicle motion, speeds, and impact dynamics.
We are based in Toronto and provide collision reconstruction services throughout the Greater Toronto Area, across Ontario, and throughout Canada. We are also retained on matters in the United States and internationally. We are retained by legal counsel, insurers, and private clients to deliver clear, defensible opinions supported by physical evidence and established analytical methods. Collision reconstruction (also commonly referred to as accident investigation) is conducted using a combination of engineering analysis, data interpretation, and, where applicable, simulation.
Services include:
3D laser scanning and site documentation
Vehicle damage and crush energy analysis
Event Data Recorder (EDR / “black box”) and Infotainment Module downloads
Time–distance, speed, and visibility analysis
3D collision simulation and animation
Video and photogrammetry-based trajectory tracking
Types of collisions analyzed:
Passenger vehicle
Motorcycle
Heavy vehicles
Pedestrian
Bicycle
Boat
Recreational vehicles such as snowmobiles, ATVs and golf carts.
Use in Legal Proceedings
Our findings are presented in formal expert reports and, where required, through testimony. Each opinion is supported by transparent methodology and clearly documented assumptions to assist the trier of fact.
