Abstract

The data indicate that rear-end collisions are 40-60% of those involving two or more vehicles. About 15% of rear-end collisions involve a parked vehicle. The data indicated that a slow-moving or stopped vehicle is frequently involved in rear end crashes. Parked vehicles are more likely to be struck at night than in the daytime, compared to other classes of rear end collisions.
