Questions for an individual claim
Ramp areas may involve acceleration, merging and changing sight lines. The motorcycle's lane and contact points should be compared with any other vehicle movements. A reconstruction should avoid treating the merge as the cause simply because the collision occurred nearby.
Records to organize
- The collision report, witness contact information and original scene photographs.
- Available dashcam or nearby surveillance recordings, with timestamps preserved.
- Vehicle photographs and inspection records relevant to the reported collision.
Preparing for a consultation
Keep a dated account of the collision and preserve the original files rather than editing the only copy of a recording. Organize treatment records, bills, work absences and insurance correspondence. A news report may identify leads, but the underlying records are needed to evaluate an individual claim. The reported severity of another person’s injuries does not establish the value or outcome of your case.
The questions above are topics for investigation, not findings of fault. This article does not indicate that Weiss Attorneys represents anyone involved in the reported matter.
