Traffic Crash Reconstruction builds upon IPTM’s Advanced Traffic Crash Investigation course by assisting you further in understanding vehicle dynamics. You will take part in a more intense study of time/distance calculations, two-dimensional momentum and impact speed calculations using momentum equations. This program will help the student to understand derivation and origin of the commonly used speed formulas, speed of vehicles at impact using conservation of linear momentum, and behavior of vehicles in a collision using Newton’s three laws of motion. Discussions of commercial vehicle and motorcycle dynamics in collisions and the determination of direction of travel, initial contact and position of vehicles on the roadway will be discussed.
