I am looking for any good reference material concerning the matching up of injuries to impact marks on a windshield in an automobile. Specifically, I need to know what sort of cracks can be expected from a person's head hitting the windshield, and waht the resultant injuries would be expected to be. I am
obviously trying to determine who the driver of the automobile was. Thanks
for all your help.
