摘要：	This study analyzed causes and outcomes of Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle accidents reported to the Joint Staff Deployments and Operations Task Force (DOTF) and the U.S. Army Combat Readiness/Safety Center (USACR/SC). Accidents reported to the DOTF were reviewed to identify sequences of MRAP accident causes and outcomes. Accidents reported to the USACR/SC were reviewed to identify MRAP accident costs and injury severity outcomes. Causes and outcomes were standardized and weighted to determine their relative contributions to MRAP accident occurrence. During the time period studied (2006- 2009), five standardized causes and outcomes classified as road hazard, rollover, vehicle issues, personnel, and driver response contributed to 80 percent of MRAP accidents resulting in injury. Rollovers were the deadliest and costliest Army MRAP accident type. Countermeasures such as materiel solutions and tactics, techniques, and procedures mitigating these top five MRAP accident causes and outcomes with injury are recommended, including continued emphasis on rollover risk reduction in MRAP driver training.
