Abstract

157 New car crashes investigated by the authors were separately analysed. Data analysis indicates injuries are sustained by direct occupant-to-occupant contact and by one occupant forcing another into or against one or more interior car structures. All body areas can be involved in this previously unreported injury mechanism, with the upper portion of the body being more susceptible to injury.
