Vehicle Handling & Performance Testing
Quest Engineering performs full-scale operational studies and field testing to deliver the empirical evidence required for complex accident reconstructions. When digital simulation alone cannot resolve a dispute, our team recreates real-world conditions to evaluate asset performance, operator visibility, and mechanical behavior.
​​
Experience Across Diverse Fleet & Equipment Classes
We provide comprehensive forensic testing and operational analysis for a wide array of vehicles and machinery, including:
​
-
Commercial & Consumer Vehicles: Commercial motor vehicles (CMVs), passenger cars, motorcycles, scooters, e-bikes, and Segways.
-
Industrial & Heavy Machinery: Heavy construction equipment, manlifts, and material handling equipment.
-
Marine Assets: Commercial and recreational boats and other watercraft.
​​
Advanced ADAS & Technology Evaluation
Modern accidents increasingly involve complex electronics. Our operational work frequently features the forensic evaluation of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), including onboard radar, automated braking, lane assist, and collision avoidance technologies to determine system performance and activation timelines during an incident.​​
​
Rigorous Methodology
To ensure legally defensible results, our engineers and scientists utilize a structured testing pipeline:​
-
Data Capture: We review the incident scene using photographs, precision measurements, and digital mapping.
-
Exemplar Procurement: We procure representative vehicles or identical equipment models.
-
Replication Testing: We configure and operate the machinery under conditions that mirror the accident environment.
-
Documentation: We record the process using high-definition video and advanced data-logging technology.​​
