Defense Verdict: Motorcycle turns into path of box truck

Client

F.X. Sean O’Doherty

Gates, O'Doherty, Gonter & Guy, LLP

Case Type

Overview

Plaintiffs sued when their client was killed in motorcycle collision with a box truck. The truck was performing a complicated turn to back into a parking lot, and the plaintiff tried to weave his way around the side of the truck at speed. 

Courtroom Animation was tasked with analyzing two surveillance cameras that caught different portions of the series of events, depicting the motorcycle at accurate speed, and depicting the box truck’s complicated motion accurately. Additionally, we created an alternative scenario showing how if the plaintiff steadily applied his brakes instead of weaving around the side of the truck he would have avoided the collision.
