EDR USE IN TRAFFIC CRASH RECONSTRUCTION

This course will teach you how to analyze any event data recorder (EDR) data you encounter,

regardless of the manufacturer. You will also learn how to analyze the EDR data which has been

collected with any imaging tools, including propriety manufacturer tools, as well as from future

vehicles not yet released.

We will teach you how to use EDR data with roadway evidence calculations to yield a complete

reconstruction considering all available evidence. Simple checklists and guides will be provided to

improve your consistency and accuracy. Supplied templates will take some of the work out of more

complex analysis.

You will be given many EDR reports from real world crashes and will work in teams to analyze the EDR

data and reconcile it to the scene evidence you are given. Comprehensive solutions to these

problems will be distributed for future reference.

Prerequisite: IPTM's Traffic Crash Reconstruction

What to Bring:

• Recently closed or active personal cases (especially those involving very recent model

years meeting the Part 563 regulation)

• Laptop computer with Microsoft excel to work templates provided

• Calculator with cosine, tangent, and square root functions

During the course, we will teach you how to: • Analyze any set of EDR data you

encounter, regardless of

manufacturer

• Determine if the event recorded

is from your crash

• Identify circumstances where

EDR data is incomplete or has

nothing to do with your crash

• Understand Delta-V

• Use EDR Delta-V along with other

scene evidence to get closing

speed and speed at impact

• Use Delta V from the vehicle with

the recorder to determine the

Delta V of the other vehicle

• Determine the effect that

equipment modifications have

on EDR speed data

• Recognize vehicle operational

conditions that would cause EDR

speed data to not accurately

reflect true vehicle speed

• Use pre-crash data to identify

when a vehicle lost control in

order to select the peak speed

before the vehicle lost control

• Calculate the appropriate

ranges for Speed at Impact for

different EDR’s

• Use time-distance analysis to

estimate the point of first

perception

• Utilize EDR data to gain previously

unavailable insight into driver

behavior and approach speed

• Use OEM specific Excel©

templates to analyze EDR data

• Support Frye and Daubert

hearings with references to

copyrighted research and non-

copyrighted items

• Show analytical tools techniques

for heavy truck data

MODERN SAMURAI PROJECT

THE MSP PATH TO PERFORMANCE: 1 DAY AIWB + 2 DAY RDS

PISTOL Prerequisites: THIS IS AN LE ONLY CLASS. LE DISCOUNT IS ALREADY FACTORED IN

CLASS FEE DAY 1:

Although it has been around for a long time, Appendix Carry has seen a resurgence in

popularity in the last 5 or so years. While many people realize that it is an ergonomically

more efficient form of concealed carry, many misconceptions still exist limiting its true

potential.

After years of study with many great teachers culminating in the #15 FAST coin, I believe

I have developed a system to accelerate the performance of nearly anyone who has

chosen this method of carry.

Topics Covered:

• Why AIWB is more efficient than other forms of carry

• Holster Concerns

• Holster customization

• Clothing considerations

• Learning the draw from beginning to end (garment clear, firing grip, marrying the

hands, presentation)

• Drills designed to increase performance or understanding for self-diagnosis.

Day 2:

Red Dots on pistols are becoming more popular as options for carry weapons. Part of

mastery is training - here it is!

Topics Covered:

• Zeroing your red dot. 10 yard zero. 25 yard confirmation. Ammo selection.

• Draw and how to stop fishing for the dot. Why back up irons are necessary?

• Only use the necessary amount of information required to make an acceptably

accurate shot at the speed and distance required.

MANDATORY IN-SERVICE LAW ENFORCEMENT TRAINING

BLOODBORNE PATHOGENS

The following Bloodborne Pathogens Training meets the Federal Occupational

Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030, which was

adopted by the New Jersey State Public Employees Occupational Safety and

Health (PEOSH) Program. Training must be provided at the time of the emergency

responder’s initial employment and at least annually thereafter.

The standard requires that emergency responders have access to a qualified

trainer while taking on-line training to allow for interactive questions and answers,

if needed. This requirement can be met via telephone contact or through email

only if the trainer is available to answer emailed questions at the time the

questions arise (e.g., live chat). It is the responsibility of each

department’s/agency’s chief executive to provide their members with the name,

contact information and work hours of the qualified trainer designated to assist

with any questions.

The standard also requires that emergency responders are provided with an

explanation of the department’s/agency’s written exposure control plan, as well

as the means by which members can obtain a written copy. It is the responsibility

of each department’s/agency’s chief executive to provide this information to its

members. It is critical that each emergency responder knows what to do in the

event of an exposure and to be able to articulate their department’s/agency’s

exposure control plan.

If the emergency responder has questions relating to any training or modifications

made to existing procedures, they should consult with their designated qualified

trainer, supervisor, and/or appropriate legal advisor.
