MOTORCYCLE vs BACKHOE : PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND NON-TYPICAL VELOCITY CALCULATIONS
|
The troopers surveyed the scene just after the accident, but did not measure the backhoe tire tracks leaving the driveway (ORANGE OVAL).
At the scene inspection, reference points were measured to perform photogrammetry to place these tire tracks onto the scene diagram.

Utilizing vertical drop and critical arc calculations, the initial and impact speeds can be determined independently of crush and post-impact travel.
