Conducting forensic investigations into accidents involving company vehicles – carrying out forensic investigations into accidents involving vehicles used for business purposes

In the event of accidents involving company vehicles, in addition to the standard technical vehicle data sources, additional operational factors such as fleet management, telematics and usage data are often taken into account when investigating the circumstances.

A forensic investigation takes into account both the vehicle’s technical data and relevant operational data sources in order to reconstruct the sequence of events leading up to the accident as comprehensively as possible.

How a company car accident investigation is carried out

Once the vehicle has been secured, both standard accident data – such as pre-crash and braking data – and relevant fleet management and telematics data are analysed and combined to form an overall picture.

Why is the investigation into accidents involving company cars relevant from a forensic perspective?

The integration of vehicle technical and operational data sources enables a particularly comprehensive reconstruction of the circumstances of the accident.

For businesses, careful documentation can also be important in order to properly resolve issues relating to employment law and insurance law.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this inspection any different from a private vehicle inspection?+
Not in essence, but relevant operational data sources, such as fleet management data, are also taken into account.
Who has access to the results of the investigation?+
This depends on the client in question and the agreed contractual terms.
Is the behaviour of other people involved in the accident also being investigated?+
Our investigation focuses primarily on the vehicle in question; other parties involved will be taken into account as part of the overall assessment, provided that relevant data is available.
