Abstract
The objective of the work was to discuss theoretical and practical aspects related to commissioning of expert studies and performance of a multidisciplinary water-technical and forensic medical expertise, when violation of water transport safety rules is investigated. The studied practice of water transport accident investigations demonstrates that predominately forensic medical examination and water-technical examination are assigned separately. In this connection, there is a need to widen knowledge on transport-technical and forensic medical examinations. A multidisciplinary expertise including forensic medical, transport-trace, and water-technical examinations should be developed, because according to the authors' opinion, it is not properly elaborated for the time being, as evidenced by small quantity of scientific publications, as well as by the absence of a definition and description of a water-transport injury in the corresponding normative act regulating the performance of forensic medical expertise.
