Abstract

Conclusions drawn in this report are: 1) Severity of injury, expressed in terms of tissue damage only, does increase with increasing degrees of vehicle damage. 2) Many injuries sustained in motor vehicle crashes are not significant in terms of tissue damage. 3) Threat to life, i.e. fatality, as expected, is related most frequently to severe tissue damage and severe vehicle damage.
