- Vehicular accidents occur in everyday life. Their degree of severity is often perceived by the general public based on the amount of human bodily injuries sustained. Nevertheless, accident reconstructionists measure the degree of severity of vehicular accidents by calculating terms that are called Collision Parameters. The principal objective of this paper is to describe the significance of the Collision Parameters and explain the vocabulary of accident reconstruction. A non-mathematical approach is utilized to provide a thorough understanding for the general public.
