A useful accident scene sketch shows the road layout, vehicle movements, and possible visibility obstructions without presenting assumptions as facts.
A symptom timeline records what was noticed, when it was noticed, and which provider evaluated it. It is not a diagnosis and does not establish the cause of a condition.
Keep the record factual
- Date, time, and location of the collision
- Symptoms noticed and when they were first noticed
- Medical visits, referrals, instructions, and records
- Photographs, crash-report details, and witness contact information
NHTSA crash-injury research examines real-world crash, vehicle, occupant, and medical evidence together. A provider determines medical care; crash and medical evidence can raise separate questions in a Charlotte car-accident claim.
