Original Abstract

Abstract

Road traffic injuries still remain an important public health problem at global, regional and national levels while the speed is an important determinant of injury. This paper describes retrospection and future trends in physical marks in traffic collision speed analysis. Traffic accident speed estimation methods such as skid marks, deflection, thrown distances, visual techniques, computer simulation and physical marks measurement techniques are briefly mentioned. A special attention has been paid to interface with surface morphological analysis and optical methods. Selected problems of visualization and collection are described. The effects of collision on the speedometers are analyzed alone. Since collision marks for speed analysis are becoming both technologically and theoretically critical, their description is a problem of a great practical importance. And it will provide a new train of thought to study this problem in an integrated way.

Keywords: Forensic science; Traffic accident analysis; Speed analysis; Collision marks; Interface; Visualization
