The TSR-PICS team completed in-depth investigations of 460 vehicle versus pedestrian accidents between April 1977 and June 1980. Eligible vehicles were passenger cars, vans and light-duty pickup trucks. Accidents were selected for in-depth investigation if they occurred during an on-call period of the systematic random sampling plan or if they resulted in a fatality. In addition, a data base was compiled that consisted of all (1,288) vehicle/pedestrian accidents that were eligible under the study definition of a pedestrian accident. The study area included the cities of Campbell, Cupertino, San Jose, Santa Clara and Sunnyvale, California. On-call field personnel were alerted to current accidents by a radio-pager system. Accidents that were missed by the routine notification system were discovered during follow-up checks of police-reported vehicle/pedestrian accidents and periodic reviews of injury accident listing in a county computer file.
