Details are given of the National PSV (Public Service Vehicle) Accident Survey cooperative exercise undertaken by 60 per cent of the larger stage carriage bus operators of the United Kingdom and Eire, and the Motor Industry Research Association, to collect data relating to serious bus accidents. Such accidents are defined as those involving hospital-treated injury or extensive vehicle damage. The data bank is intended to be of value to vehicle designers and to provide a source of information relating to PSV safety. The data base features: (1) standardized accident reporting using a purpose-designed form; and (2) a system for relating vehicles reported in accidents to independent design data sheets. A preliminary analysis of some 2200 reports received showed the effectiveness of the data processing system in relating accident and passenger injury information to vehicle design.
