Slide 11 of 12
Notes:
I want to finish with a review of two items that we discussed last week and their relevance to the sites we examined today. One of the issues presented last week is that the type of injury and the severity of injury influence the type of data source that you will examine to identify injuries. Considering the sites that we examined today; where do they fall on the scale outlined above. For example, the FARS system identifies fatal accidents, so comparatively it is based upon relatively severe events. Where do the other monitoring approaches fall?
