What Information Is Gathered After a Fatal Crash Involving Large Trucks?
After a fatal crash involving large trucks, investigators usually examine several pieces of evidence to determine how the collision unfolded. This may include the location of the vehicles, roadway conditions, skid marks, vehicle damage, and the direction each vehicle was traveling before impact.
Investigators may also review witness statements, nearby surveillance or dashboard camera footage, and any electronic data available from the vehicles.
