A standardized protocol was formulated for collecting vehicle damage and occupant injury data. Vehicle deformation was to be quantified according to a system described as the Vehicle Deformation Index (VDI), SAE Recommended Practices, Collision Deformation Classification- SAE J224a. The VDI is a system for quantitatively and/ or qualitatively describing the condition of the vehicle following a crash.
