ACCIDENT RECONSTRUCTION

Accident reconstruction with Fleetistics helps fleet managers understand what happened before, during, and after a collision using telematics data. Fleetistics provides a variety of features and reports that can be used for accident reconstruction, such as GPS tracking, speed monitoring, event recording, video recording, trip history report, event report, and video report.

WHAT IS ACCIDENT Management?

Accident management includes the process of using telematics data to understand what happened before, during, and after a collision. Telematics data is highly valuable for fleet managers because it provides an accurate, scientific record of events. This makes it possible to go beyond eyewitness testimony and gain a deeper understanding of the root causes of accidents.

Digital Accident Reporting

A digital accident report provides a defined and repeatable process. It reduces errors during a stressful situation and significantly expedites getting the data to decision makers. A faster response in a hazmat situation can save a company hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars.

Identify the time of the accident. Once you have identified the time of the accident, you can zoom in on that section of the trip history.

Analyze the telemetry data. The telemetry data will provide you with more detailed information about the vehicle’s speed, acceleration, and other data points at the time of the accident.

Create a timeline of events. Use the trip history and telemetry data to create a timeline of events leading up to, during, and after the accident.

Identify any key factors. Look for any key factors that may have contributed to the accident, such as hard braking, harsh acceleration, or cornering speed.
