Abstract:
A method and system may analyze the liability of drivers involved in a vehicle crash based on video image data of the vehicle crash. When a vehicle crash occurs, several image capturing devices may transmit sets of video images captured within a predetermined threshold distance and time of the scene of the vehicle crash. The sets of video images may be combined, aggregated, and/or assembled chronologically and spatially to form a compilation which may depict the sequence of events leading up to, during, and immediately after the vehicle crash. Based on the compilation, percentages of fault may be allocated to each of the drivers involved in the vehicle crash and the amount of liability may be assessed for each of the drivers.
