Collision reconstruction with telematics data

When a vehicle collision occurs, it’s important for fleet managers to know what happened and why. Gathering information about the collision is vital for insurance, driver training and potential litigation. Collision reconstruction with telematics can help with this.

What is collision reconstruction?

Collision reconstruction with telematics is the process of using GPS fleet tracking technology and software to understand the events that occurred before, during and after a collision.

Telematics data is highly valuable for management because it provides an accurate scientific record of events. It makes it possible to go beyond word-of-mouth testimony. The granularity of the data can tell you many things about a collision. As well, telematics makes it possible to gain a broader perspective on the event by looking at the historical patterns for a specific driver or vehicle.
