Forensic Assessment of Trauma Injuries in The Interior of a Moving Passenger Car Equipped with Modern Safety Features

One of the most important issues in case of trauma in the interior of a moving passenger car is to determine the location of the victim. The basis of forensic medical diagnostics of the victim's location is the analysis of the formed injuries. According to the data of educational and classical scientific literature for the trauma in the car interior the formation of injuries on the front surface of the body (in the 1st phase of trauma), in the cervical spine, as well as injuries from the general impact concussion of the body are typical. Damages on the hands, chest and feet of the driver from the impact on the steering wheel and control pedals are the main criteria in determining the position of the victim in the car interior.
