Motorcycle Accident Case Study
Motorcycle Accident – Fatality
After a motorcycle fatality in Brisbane, one of our engineers was engaged to act as an expert witness in the case. The driver whose vehicle struck the motorcycle claimed not to have seen the motorcycle until moments before impact. Our expert engineer examined the incident site and his motorcycle accident analysis was able to provide robust evidence as to the contributing factors that could have made the motorcycle difficult to perceive, leading up to the incident.
