INTRODUCTION
Welcome
to the May 2002 edition of the Accident Reconstruction Newsletter.
Last month most of you received a post card from the ARC
Network announcing the ARC-CSI Crash Conference and also
listing a special offer for early registration. If you signed
the ARC Network Guest
Book and provided your address - you were sent a
post card.
Last
month we concentrated on helping the Police Departments
around the United States. Many of the officers that work
in the department have budgetary concerns which limits them
from becoming members of the ARC Network. So, we put together
a very affordable plan for police departments. We contacted
all the state agencies last month and have just begun implementing
the Police Directory. So far, we have signed on Michigan
State Police, Arizona State Patrol, Township of Bristol
(PA), and Minnesota State Patrol. The feedback from these
departments have been great. The ARC is pleased to be able
to help out and work with all these fine officers.
Another
big project the ARC Network is working on is a consumer
section linked to the ARC. This new section will be helpful
to the consumer who has been in an accident. One of the
features of this new area is an attorney directory. This
new section will help complete the cycle of an accident.
An accident occurs, the persons involved can go to the ARC
Network and learn what to do, one of the options is to retain
an attorney. The attorney can then use the ARC Network to
research the case and retain an expert. The expert, in turn,
can use the resources of the ARC Network to help prepare
for the case. Along the way, the ARC also will have links
to police departments, claims adjusters and others that
are involved in the process. We are planning on a September
2002 launch for the new section.
REMINDER:
The ARC-CSI Conference is fast approaching and the first
special is about to expire.
If you register for the conference prior to June 1, 2002
you will receive a free denim conference shirt personalized
