Urban Road Traffic Accidents

Published by admin at 6:19 pm under Road Traffic Accidents

As always, we are unable to include details of individual cases whilst they progress through the courts. But this scene demonstrates the level of detail that we can achieve in our accident reconstructions without revealing any specifics.

3d animations are based on the information gathered in court reports, usually commissioned by solicitors or insurance companies. Court reports are immensely detailed and can run up to fifty pages long. They will include details of weather and lighting conditions, road surface information, statements from witnesses, any evidence gathered at the scene, alongside photographs and diagrams.

All of this information is then analysed by the accident experts, calculations of speed and distances travelled are made based on the laws of physics and the result is presented to us. It’s then our job to visually represent the information as accurately as possible.

Urban night scenes are not unusual for us, and this is hardly surprising. They do present additional challenges however, as there are often many sources of artificial light, each casting shadows. But realistic effects are always achievable.
