The study collected accident data that would allow determination of the relationships between occupant injury and accident severity. The measure of severity most commonly used to characterize an accident is the velocity change experienced by the passenger compartment during the collision. In some 52% of the accidents contained in the pre-April 1978 NCSS data file, these velocity changes have been established with the CRASH computer program. However, it was felt that a substantial number of the remaining cases were reconstructable with other methods. As a result, procedures were developed to estimate velocity changes in two car accidents in which the damage to 484 additional accidents from the pre-April 1978 NCSS file have been reconstructed to the point of having velocity change estimates for the vehicles involved.
