The PI Magazine Bookstore is proud to offer investigators The Pocket Traffic Accident Reconstruction Guide. As traffic accident investigators or reconstructionist you probably have the common speed and sliding formulas memorized. However, there likely are formulas out there that you haven’t committed to memory. And, while it’s not practical to carry around a large textbook to every accident scene, having some type of reference would make your job easier. That is why the Pocket Traffic Accident Reconstruction Guide was created.

Timothy Stabb, the author, created the Pocket Traffic Accident Reconstruction Guide to be an easy to use reference for anyone investigating a traffic accident. The guide is a pocket-sized booklet containing over eighty equations to compute vehicle velocity/speeds, distance, time acceleration rates and more. Designed to fit in a shirt pocket or briefcase, this handy guide also contains a glossary of traffic collision terms, a table of roadway friction coefficient values and a conversion multiplier.

It contains equations for:
• Converting speed from MPH to FPS
• Converting velocity from FPS to MPH
• Airborne projectile motion
• Center of gravity mass
• Pedestrian impact
• And many more
