The speed-injury relationships for single vehicle frontal crashes are examined. Data were obtained from state police and physicians in 31 states participating in the ACIR interstate program. Study data consist of 5,824 cars and 10,859 occupants involved in injury-producing single vehicle frontal impacts. The objective of the study is to clarify some of the relationships between traveling speed and injury.
