Eyewitness Testimony

Eyewitness testimony can be a useful supplement to other evidence when it comes to motor vehicle related cases. This kind of evidence can be used to identify the perpetrators of crimes and provide details on how the accident occurred. There is a large body of evidence that shows eyewitness identifications are usually inaccurate.

Witnesses are more likely to make mistakes when recalling an object's color or shape. Perceptual distortions, like memory loss, may cause a person to miss an event.

Moreover, witness memory can be distorted by leading questions or other information given to witnesses. For instance, researchers in an experiment found that telling participants to estimate the speed at which the car was moving influenced their answers. Other factors that influence the accuracy of eyewitness testimony include age, attention level, skill in coping with stress, health conditions and prejudice.

While many experts say that eyewitness evidence can be relied upon there is a need to educate law enforcement agencies and jurors about the potential for error in this kind of evidence. In some instances, eyewitness testimony that was inaccurate has led to wrongful convictions, or even murder.

Vehicle Examination

It is also possible that the vehicle's manufacturer may be found to be liable under the law of product liability if the accident was caused by an issue with the vehicle or its component parts.

Components or Parts that are defective

For a vehicle's operation to run properly, thousands of tiny electrical and mechanical components must work together. If one of these components is damaged, the result can be catastrophic. Often, these accidents are caused by manufacturing defects or other problems in the design or construction of a particular part. If a defect in the design or construction of a vehicle is the reason of an accident, the party responsible for the accident may be liable to compensate victims for injuries.

Many people believe that the majority of car accidents are caused by human error. While 94 percent of them are due to driver errors but there are other factors, such as road conditions or defective parts that can lead to an accident.

Defective auto parts include brakes, airbags, seatbelts, tires or any other component which could fail to function as designed, leading to an accident. Sometimes, these flaws are caused by aftermarket upgrades that weren't designed with the same attention to detail as the original parts on the vehicle. Sometimes, the defect is present in the original design of a component.

Manufacturers are required to make vehicles that meet the minimum safety standards. If the vehicle or its components weren't designed or constructed to these specifications the manufacturer could be held liable in a product liability lawsuit for any damages that occur in the event of an accident that was caused by the defective part.
