1. A computing device comprising at least one processor and at least one memory device in communication therewith, the at least one processor configured to:
receive audio data relating to a traffic collision involving an autonomous vehicle (AV), the audio data identifying a time and geographic location of the AV;
retrieve vehicle telematics data collected by sensors of the AV;
verify a time of the traffic collision provided in the audio data based upon the vehicle telematics data, the time of the traffic collision including a time period starting before a collision event of the traffic collision and ending after the collision event;
determine, based upon the retrieved vehicle telematics data and the received audio data, for each of a plurality of moments in time during the traffic collision, a position and an orientation of the AV during the traffic collision; and
generate a simulation of the traffic collision including a representation of the AV based upon the determined position and orientation of the AV for each of the plurality of moments in time; and
provide content to enable display of the simulation on a display device.
