The report presents the final results of a four-year project to evaluate the safety impact of FMVSS 121. The study focuses on the experience of 1974-1977 model year vehicles. National estimates of fatal and injury accident involvement rates are developed for pre- and post-standard vehicles in various exposure categories. National samples of vehicles were selected from manufacturers' sales lists for exposure surveys. The authors conclude that this study provides no evidence of a substantial safety benefit for post-standard vehicles.
