Passenger Vehicle Data Retrieval
With data going back as far as the 1990s in some vehicles, there is a good chance one or all of the vehicles in your collision have some type of accident-related data. Newer vehicles on the road today have the capability of storing pre-crash data – which can include the vehicle’s speed, braking status, seatbelt status, steering input, throttle position, and more in the seconds leading up to the crash. Don’t let the vehicle’s collision damage deter you from inquiring. We have successfully imaged black box/EDR data from heavily fire-damaged vehicles, submerged vehicles, and in cases where heavy equipment was needed to gain access to the module.
Commercial Vehicle Data Retrieval
Just like passenger vehicles, commercial vehicle black box/EDR data can go back to the 1990s, but the data available is determined by the make and year of the engine as opposed to the vehicle manufacturer. We can also get collision-related data from heavy-vehicle braking system modules like Bendix and WABCO, the two most popular braking systems we see on the road today. Some commercial vehicles can have both “hard-braking” events stored as well as data recorded from its “last stop,” which can have speed, braking, engine RPM, clutch status, and more – both before AND after the point of collision.
GPS, Telematics, and other EDR sources
We have retrieved accident data from several different non-traditional sources in passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles and even motorcycles on the road today. This can include data from the GPS on your dash, the phone in your pocket, the iPad in your bag, the fleet management software under your dash, and a host of other potential sources. If we cannot retrieve the data via download, we make sure you’re notified of all other potential data sources and what must be done to preserve the data for the future.
YOU HAVE QUESTIONS. WE HAVE ANSWERS.
The data retrieved from your vehicle’s black box/EDR can contain important information about your accident. In many cases, the EDR data can help provide answers to common questions like:
- BRAKING: Did the driver brake at all prior to the impact?
- THROTTLE: Was the driver increasing or decreasing the throttle prior to the impact?
- STEERING: Did the driver steer left/right? Did steering occur after or before an impact?
- SEATBELTS: Were seatbelts being used at the time of the collision?
- IMPACT SEVERITY: How severe was the impact (delta-v)?
- CRUISE CONTROL: Was cruise control enabled?
- ENGINE PROBLEMS: Was the vehicle experiencing mechanical problems prior to the impact?
- SRS/SAFETY-RESTRAINT: Did the airbags and/or pretensioners deploy? Was there a prior accident?
- TRAFFIC CONTROL: Did the vehicle stop at the stop sign or red light prior to entering an intersection?
- TESTIMONY: Does the data align with the testimony/statements of witnesses, involved parties, or other data sources?
- THE ORDER OF EVENTS: Did your client get rear-ended and THEN sustain a frontal impact?
- SURVEILLANCE: Does the data align with video surveillance footage you might have?
