Modern vehicles are more than just transportation—they are data hubs containing critical information that can shape the outcome of investigations. At Mako Forensics, we specialize in analyzing digital data from vehicle infotainment and telematics systems (typically obtained by law enforcement officials) to uncover the truth behind accidents, disputes, and criminal cases. Here’s how our vehicle forensic services can benefit specific cases:

Distracted Driving & Accident Investigations

Vehicle forensics can provide key insights into driver behavior at the time of an accident. We can:

Recover GPS and location data to reconstruct the vehicle’s movements and speed.
Analyze infotainment systems for recent phone calls, text messages, or app usage while driving.
Extract event data records (EDRs) to determine braking, acceleration, and steering actions.

Why it matters: Reliable vehicle data can clarify fault, support insurance claims, and provide crucial evidence in court.

Insurance Claims & Fraud Investigations

Vehicle data can uncover the truth in cases of fraudulent claims or disputes over accident details. Our services include:

Verifying events through timestamped location history and trip data.
Identifying anomalies or discrepancies in accident reports.
Preserving data in a secure, court-admissible format for use in investigations or litigation.

Why it matters: Insurers can resolve claims more confidently with clear evidence from vehicle systems.

Corporate Fleet & Employee Investigations

For companies managing fleets or investigating employee misconduct, vehicle forensics offers vital solutions. We can:

Monitor usage patterns to ensure compliance with company policies.
Analyze trip histories for unauthorized use or deviations from assigned routes.
Retrieve data to investigate incidents involving company-owned vehicles.

Why it matters: Fleet managers and businesses can protect their assets and ensure accountability with comprehensive vehicle data analysis.

Personal & Family Cases

Vehicle data can also play a role in personal matters, such as custody or harassment cases. We can:

Recover navigation history to validate timelines or confirm locations.
Analyze infotainment systems for communication records and multimedia evidence.
Provide unbiased reports to support legal proceedings or personal disputes.

Why it matters: Vehicle forensics offers a discreet, professional approach to uncovering the evidence that matters most.
