Report on Traffic Accidents and Injuries, 1981: The National Accident Sampling System

摘要

This is a report of national estimates on traffic accidents produced from the 1981 data of the National Accident Sampling System. For topics of particular current interest (restraint use, alcohol involvement, and injuries) the 1979, 1980, and 1981 data are combined for greater accuracy. In addition to these three topics, the report describes the national occurrence of accidents by type of vehicle, non-occupant, roadway, and time. Also included are statistical discussions of the NASS sampling design, data elements, estimation procedures, and sampling errors.
