Accident scenes are chaotic, with drivers, passengers and witnesses offering different accounts of the incident. Claims professionals need objective data, and the vehicle's Event Data Recorder (EDR), also known as a "black box," provides valuable insight about the facts of a collision. Finally, claims adjusters have a source of reliable information about what really happened.

EDR data is your best witness.

Claims professionals can use EDR data to identify fraud and determine and apportion fault. The analysis and interpretation of the EDR data improves claim investigation by providing objective insight into:

• Vehicle speed
• Seatbelt usage
• Stopping distance
• Braking activity
• Impact severity
• Collision sequence
• Appropriate airbag system replacement
• Status of vehicle operation at time of collision

Use the EDR InSight® program to get the facts.

The Injury Sciences' EDR InSight® program is the first and only solution to facilitate the use of EDR data in the claims evaluation process. This comprehensive service starts by helping claims professionals determine:

• Which vehicles have harvestable EDR data
• What type of EDR data can be harvested specific to the vehicle make and model
• Who is available to provide EDR harvesting services
• What the harvested EDR data means

Powerful features. Affordable insight.

The EDR InSight® solution offers a transaction-based fee structure, so it's a cost-effective way to collect, store and interpret EDR data. Costs to extract and deliver interpreted EDR data to the desktop start around $200 per assignment.  And because the EDR InSight program is a single-point, end-to-end solution, the chain of custody is documented and preserved.
