This report describes data collection, quality control and data analysis procedures for a five-team program to study pedestrian injury causation factors. The data file contains 1,997 pedestrian accidents collected during a two and one-half year period from September 1977 to March 1980. Data analysis includes evaluation of injury severity and injury types associated with impact speed, vehicle body style, injury source and pedestrian age. Other analyses include vehicle-pedestrian interactions, pedestrian orientation and injury severity, vehicle braking and injury type and severity and the effect of vehicle geometry on injury. Lower extremity injuries are evaluated in terms of pedestrian age and injury source.
