A traffic accident is a highly involved, complex interaction between two objects. It includes a series of events that led up to the conclusion of the traffic accident. It is not simply a car hitting another object. To fully reconstruct a traffic accident, one must thoroughly understand, and evaluate what has occurred that caused, or contributed, to this event. By addressing the "3" Factors, a comprehensive adn unbiases reconstruction can be completed.

An important part of accident investigation is recording information so that it can be used later.

Photography is an indispensable means of achieving this. Photographs are employed in two ways, as a permanent, accurate, unbiased record of something specifically observed by an investigator and to capture the detailed appearance of something such as a mark on the road or damage to a vehicle. Photographs may later reveal significant details that were not observed at the time the picture was made. Over the years I have found there are 5-major errors in traffic accident photography.
