Which of the following is an example of demonstrative evidence?

• A. A tire impression
• B. A map
• C. A witness testimony
• D. A bank statement

Answer: (B)

Demonstrative evidence helps the jury visualize or understand facts by illustrating them. A map does this nicely because it visually conveys geographic information—locations, routes, and distances—that supports how witnesses describe where events happened or how someone moved. It clarifies and clarifies the context, rather than establishing a fact on its own.

In contrast, a tire impression is physical evidence—a real trace at the scene that can directly tie a vehicle to an area. A bank statement is documentary evidence—a written record of transactions. A witness testimony is testimonial evidence—someone’s spoken account. Demonstrative evidence like a map complements these other types by making their information easier to grasp.
