摘要: |
The statistical analysis of the effectiveness of RWAL for light trucks is based on 1990-91 accident data from Michigan and Florida, 1989-91 data from Pennsylvania and 1989-mid 92 data from the Fatal Accident Reporting System (FARS). RWAL was installed as standard equipment on most domestic Chervolet, GMC, Ford and Dodge pickup trucks, sport utility vehicles, and vans during 1987-90. The statistical analysis compares trucks of the first 2 model years with RWAL to trucks of the same make-model, of the last 2 model years without RWAL. / Availability Note: Product reproduced from digital image.
