Vehicle impacts with utility poles are one of the most unforgiving types of crashes to which motorists are exposed. In New Jersey, nearly 200 vehicle occupants died on state highways after crashes into utility poles between the years 2000 to 2003. This report describes the findings of a research program to reduce the fatalities and injuries that result from traffic crashes with utility poles in New Jersey. The specific objective is to develop recommended procedures which will enable a designer to select the countermeasures which are most appropriate for reducing the frequency or severity of vehicle impacts with utility poles at a specific site.
