The form should have an introduction that provides an overview of the automobile accident scene. You will need to develop this section based upon important information you believe should be included. Some considerations may include: the time of day, vehicles involved (be specific), the road conditions and the type of road, speed limit, and other factors you believe to be important.
Accident Scene Information:
This section of the form should be concise and provide critical information using math and science concepts. As part of this section you may want to provide law enforcement with the math and science formulas that they will need to use to find answers to questions relating to the accident. What formulas would you suggest and why should law enforcement use these formulas? Below are some ideas for your consideration:
• Determination of Post Collision Speed • Force of Impact
• Velocity
• Forces Impacting People Involved
Conclusion (What was the Cause of the Accident?).
With all of the information you have developed, briefly conclude who was to blame supported by the diagram and Accident Scene Report form. Discuss why this information may be more important than eyewitness testimony.
