The primary
purpose of a vehicle lamp analysis is to determine
whether the lamp was lighted or unlighted at the time of
vehicle impact. Filaments of incandescent lamps often
provide the key to answering the question. Because
filaments are made of tungsten, stresses generated on
them by the forces associated with a collision produce
deformation and fracture phenomena with characteristic
differences between hot and cold filaments. Further
evidence may arise if the glass bulb is broken during
the accident. This kit includes a detailed PowerPoint
lecture exploring the characteristics associated with
lamps involved in accidents.
The "on" or
"off" condition of various lamps may assist
investigators when attempting to determine the chain of
events which occurred in a vehicular collision. Head-on
collisions occurring at night are traffic accidents
where the analysis of headlamps and parking lamps is
beneficial. The samples included with the kit have been
broken under various circumstances and allow students to
examine actual "evidence". The worksheets included
with the kit will help students report their findings.
This kit is 100% reusable and will provide years of
service.
