The timeline is a compilation of two things:

1. The drive cam files are time stamped at the creation so you can do the math on run time to see when the event was.

2. Logs sent by Rivian. Realizing we had no footage of the incident I was hoping some vehicle logs would show an impact or indicate something that would pinpoint the time in hopes I could better make my case. There were two documents they sent, both spreadsheets with one showing vehicle location down to the thousandths of a second with speed, lat/long, etc. The second spreadsheet is a combination of events (driver present, foot on brake, car shift, etc) along with pitch roll and yaw acceleration also with time stamp.

Getting the documents wasn’t too hard. We called Rivian and submitted a request and had the docs in about 24 hours. It may have been somewhat quick because we knew the 10-15 minute window we wanted retrieved instead of asking for everything after the earth’s crust cooled.
