Motorcycle Collision Analysis

Motorcycle collisions present unique challenges due to the differences in vehicle dynamics, rider vulnerability, and crash factors compared to other motor vehicle accidents. At Rule 62 Consulting, we specialize in motorcycle collision analysis, providing the detailed insights and expert analysis necessary to unravel even the most complex cases.

Our Process
Scene & Motorcycle Examination
  • Comprehensive scene documentation including tire mark measurements, debris pattern analysis, road surface condition evaluation, elevation changes, visual obstructions, sun glare, line-of-sight factors, motorcycle final rest positioning, and rider(s) final rest positioning - captured using real-time kinematic (RTK) drone photography

  • Detailed inspection of impact-specific motorcycle damage and component analysis - including structural deformation, mechanical system integrity, and rider safety gear assessment - to determine pre-impact condition versus crash-related damage

  • Advanced photogrammetry to create precise digital records of accident scenes - capturing accurate measurements and spatial relationships for analysis

Reconstruction Analysis
  • Physics-based reconstruction of motorcycle collision phases including pre-impact braking, swerving, and/or sliding, impact, and post-impact to final rest phases utilizing conservation of linear and angular momentum principles to calculate pre-impact speed, impact angles, and force vectors specific to motorcycle mass ratios and dynamics

  • Analysis of rider kinematics upon separation and/or ejection from the motorcycle based on the principle of uniform projectile motion

  • Simulation of various crash scenarios against all collected physical evidence to validate impact dynamics conclusions - producing detailed technical documentation of methodology, calculations, and findings for litigation support

Litigation Support
  • Professional expert witness testimony supported by visual presentations, 3D animations, and detailed diagrams that communicate complex motorcycle collision dynamics and address common misconceptions about motorcycle crashes to attorneys, judges, and juries in an understandable, compelling manner

  • Strategic consultation with legal teams on how to effectively present accident reconstruction findings, including deposition preparation, trial presentation strategy, and real-time expert support during proceedings

  • Independent review and analysis of opposing expert reports, identifying methodological gaps, unsupported conclusions, and inconsistencies with physical evidence - providing detailed rebuttal documentation and litigation strategy to strengthen your case
