Everything is traceable. If the car was involved in a fatal accident no stone would be left unturned. Forensics can even trace from the cars brake light bulbs if you were braking at the time of the accident.
Wow, just as a matter of interest, how do they tell if you were braking?

Often they will check for glass in the filament. (If bulb shattered etc).
There was a RTA on TV where the truck ploughed into a car and the truck driver said the car was not braking, but the glass in the filament showed the lights were ON thus the car in front had brakes on.

Presumably TA isn't insurable as a trackday as it's timed?
