| Abstract: | It would to mitigate the severity of pedestrian injuries by improving the vehicles front structures. Starting at a certain speed the goal to reduce these injuries is limited, but at speeds below 40 km/h are possible significant reductions of injuries of pedestrians involved in frontal impacts with vehicles.
Between 1980 and 2000 the fatality rate was reduced by 65% from 40 to 14 per one million inhabitants.
It followed a further reduction of fatality by 30% and 17% severe injuries until 2010. Statistics show the possibility to reach this level without imposing directives or testing procedures. |
