What if I believe that a vehicle or tire defect contributed to the accident or caused my injuries to be more severe than reasonably expected?
If there is any chance that your vehicle or tire was defective and was the cause of significant injury or death then the entire vehicle, any other vehicles involved, and the accident scene must be preserved as evidence in a product liability case. It is essential that as soon as possible after the accident that an expert document the accident scene by surveying/measuring and photographing the entire area including skid marks, location of accident debris, trip/yaw/roll marks on the pavement/road shoulder, location of impact(s) and final vehicle rest.
