Full Description: Prerequisite:  The successful completion of an advanced crash investigation course.

Course Description:  Many trained peace officers have difficulty getting their crash investigation findings admitted into court.  This course is designed to help overcome this difficulty by enabling a well-trained peace officer to qualify as an expert and give expert testimony in a court of law relative to the causation factors in motor vehicle traffic crashes.  Crash reconstruction instructors provide training to students through lectures, projects, and in-depth analysis of actual collisions.  A student who successfully completes this course will be able to give expert testimony in the following areas:

• Speed of vehicles at impact using conservation of linear momentum.
• Behavior of vehicles in a collision using Newton's three laws of motion.
• The effect of weight shift in braking involving large trucks and buses, including truck-tractor/semi-trailer combinations.
• The effect of anti-skid braking systems in stopping distances and braking action.
• The determination of direction of travel, initial contact, and position of vehicles on the roadway through the interpretation of vehicles damage and the analysis of at-scene marks and evidence.

Who Should Attend:  This course is designed for peace officers and individuals responsible for investigating motor vehicle crashes.
