The report contains case summaries of recent in-depth reports submitted by NHTSA sponsored multidisciplinary accident investigation teams in a continuing series of publications. These case reports are individual, clinical studies of accidents generally involving vehicles of the last three model years of fatal, injury producing, or property damage severity (severe enough so that at least one vehicle must be towed from the scene). The teams investigate each element of the collision (human, vehicle, environment) as it interacts with each phase of the collision (pre-crash, crash, post-crash). Basic information is used on the highway and vehicles involved, a description of the drivers and occupants involved, a phase-by-phase description of the sequence of events of the collision, and a list of the casual factors, conclusions and recommendations.
