As technology has been improved by many changes and inventions are made almost every day. Traumatic events come in many different ways at many different times of one’s life. Recent trends on the advantage of communication technologies in case of emergency situations supported by artificial intelligence systems (AIS) which are capable to take automatic decisions. To improve the assistance time o...

This study applied logistic regression to accident-related data collected from traffic-police records in order to examine the contributing factors to accident severity. A total of 560 subjects involved in severe accidents was sampled. The accident severity (dependent variable) in this study is a dichotomous variable with two categories, Fatal or Injury. Therefore, each of the subjects sampled i...

Injury Severity describes the severity of the injury to the person involved in the crash. Understanding the factors that influence injury severity can be helpful in designing mechanisms to reduce accident fatalities. Several research studies have examined the relationship between injury severity and the possible factors that can be related to the severity of the injury. These include driver-rel...

AIM To analyze the severity of automotive injuries associated with blood alcohol concentration (BAC) in increments of 0.01%. DESIGN/SETTING Epidemiological study using the Fatality Analysis Reporting System. PARTICIPANTS All people in US fatal automotive accidents, 1994-2008 (n = 1 495 667). MEASUREMENTS The ratio of serious: non-serious injuries for drivers, by BAC. FINDINGS Accident s...

In-depth, retrospective accident investigation studies provide a means to understand how car occupants are injured in road traffic accidents. In most retrospective studies, crash severity is estimated using the CRASH3 computer program. capable of crash severity assessment, PC-CRASH is more focused on accident reconstruction, and is therefore not discussed in this paper. AiDamage is a crash seve...
