Abstract

See full text

Computer-implemented methods and systems for estimating liability for a vehicle accident are provided. In one embodiment, the theoretical paths of a straight traveling vehicle and of a turning vehicle may be estimated. In certain embodiments, the turning vehicle may be merging into the same lane as the straight traveling vehicle. The opportunity of at least one vehicle, traveling at a specified speed, to avoid the accident may be assessed. In an embodiment, a contribution to liability to at least one vehicle may be estimated based on the opportunity of the vehicle to avoid the accident.
