Mr. Cox has provided expert testimony more than 310 times in the areas of crash reconstruction, the biojmechanl response of the occupants when subject to various crash magnitudes, mechanism of injury related to motor vehicle collisions and the type of injury one might expect in a motor vehicle collision. Mr. Cox has been a frequent lecturer on the topics of crash reconstruction and impact biomechanics. His audiences have included business, legal, and insurance professionals, as well as, members of his peer group. He has been featured as an expert in network broadcast news stories in Houston, Phoenix, and Providence, RI, as well as, two programs on the Discovery Channel and as a guest scientist on Stan Lee's Superhuman, which airs on The History Channel. He also served as a consultant on impact biomechanics to actor/director Quentin Tarantino on a crash stunt and scene for the recently release movie entitled, Death Proof.

Mr. Cox has authored articles on crash reconstruction and related subjects for national publications. He holds crash reconstruction accreditation #983 from the Accreditation Commission for Traffic Accident Reconstruction (ACTAR).

Since 1995, he has conducted more than 330 instrumented crash tests. At least 270 of those tests were performed with human subjects and anthropomorphic devices. In 1996, Mr. Cox designed and built a mobile crash laboratory called the Low Velocity Impact Simulator (LVIS). This device is still used today to study low speed impact biomechanics, vehicle seat properties and occupant kinematic responses. In 2001, he conducted a 300-hour study, sponsored by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), at Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab, which focused on the correlation between seat geometry and neck injury.
