The study develops a method of estimating costs for selected Texas accidents using cost data developed for accident involvements in Massachusetts, Illinois, New Mexico and Utah. Given the number and type (car/truck) of vehicles involved and the number of fatally injured persons, accident costs can be derived using the direct cost per involvement and loss of future earnings estimates presented in the report. Also, accident rates for selected highway designs and for various average daily traffic counts are presented and analyzed. (Author)
