What is involved in a forensic vehicle examination inspection?

Driven Forensics are a collision investigation consultancy that specialises in forensic vehicle inspection and examination. We are extensively experienced and have been forensically inspecting vehicles for a little under a decade, but what does a forensic vehicle inspection involve?


Forensic vehicle inspections and examinations vary on a case-by-case basis and each inspection is tailored to meet the needs to the questions that are being asked.


Our clients come to us with a variety of requests ranging from a general health check to determine a vehicles general health, whereas, others come to us with clients who are alleging specific defects which need to be investigated.


With each inspection, we will always narrow down the specific questions that our clients are trying to answer and we will consider any relevant questions that they may also wish to consider. We will then put together an inspection plan to ensure we answer all the questions raised.


In the past, Driven Forensics have completed inspections to determine the general health of a vehicle, instances where specific defects have been identified (such as brake defects, steering defects, electrical defects etc) as well as specific component analysis (such as bulbs, fluids etc).


We provide a nationwide forensic vehicle inspection and examination service.


If you believe a vehicle inspection might be needed, contact us today and we will help you shape an inspection plan to answer the questions that need to be answered.
