Abstract

This paper relates the severity of brain injuries in fatal pedestrian collisions to relevant characteristics of the head impact locations on the striking cars. Based on cases in which there was no significant impact to the head from contact with the road, the correlation of the nature and severity of the impact to the head with the characteristics of the injury to the brain yields information which is relevant to the assessment of the brain injury potential of head impact locations on passenger cars.
