The report contains the findings of multidisciplinary investigations of 30 collisions. Detailed data were obtained relating to the human, the vehicle, and the environment factors which are involved in all motor vehicle accidents. The in-depth study was deemed necessary in order to (1) determine accident causation, (2) identify injury causation, (3) evaluate the effectiveness of the new safety features, (4) provide early detection of design and functional problems of the vehicle and highway, (5) evaluate the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, and (6) evaluate the Federal Highway Safety Program Standards.
