Abstract:

This report describes data collection, quality control and data analysis procedures for a five-team program to study pedestrian injury causation factors. The data file contains 1,997 pedestrian accidents collected during a two and one-half year period from September 1977 to March 1980. The report describes the data sources, quality control measures, the data file and the case weighting procedures used in preparing the data for analysis. The study cases represent a sample of the pedestrian accidents occurring in the five collection areas. These samples were compared with the base rate data (all police reported pedestrian accidents) from the areas to determine the representativeness of the sample. Data analysis includes evaluation of injury severity and injury types associated with impact speed, vehicle body style, injury source and pedestrian age. Other analyses include vehicle-pedestrian interactions, pedestrian orientation and injury severity, vehicle braking and injury type and severity and the effect of vehicle geometry on injury. Lower extremity injuries are evaluated in terms of pedestrian age and injury source. Emphasis throughout the analysis is placed on frontal impacts which are the most common. One section is also devoted to vehicle side impacts with pedestrians. /Abstract from report summary page/
