Accident records for about 9000 streets in local authority residential estates, free from substantial through traffic, in 20 towns, were analyzed in relation to population statistics, traffic flow, observations of children and parked vehicles, design parameters etc., using multiple regression and other techniques. The emphasis was on pedestrian accidents, which were predominantly to children. The object was to contribute towards the solution of the problem of the safe design of residential areas.
