Intersection Evidence Preservation Checklist

From our guide Who Is at Fault in a T-Bone Accident? Look Beyond the Impact

  • Save original dashcam files in a separate backup location without editing them.
  • Write down nearby camera locations and the direction each camera appeared to face.
  • Record the intersection name, approximate crash time, and your direction of travel.
  • Label photographs as taken before or after vehicles were moved.
  • Store witness contact information separately from your notes about what each person observed.
  • Ask an attorney whether vehicle inspection or electronic-data preservation is needed before repairs or disposal.
  • Keep a dated record of requests to preserve recordings and any responses.
