✦ Synopsis

Fatal and serious accident data for the period 1961-1970, and fatal, serious and slight accident data for the period 1965-1970, is used in a regression with vehicle-mileage. The fits obtained are projected into the future. The future vehicle-mileage in Great Britain, on a monthly basis, is estimated for 7 categories of vehicle: cars and taxis; light vans; medium and heavy goods; public service vehicles; motorcycles; mopeds: and pedal cycles. Seven categories of road are considered, and one-and two-vehicle accidents between all 7 categories of vehicle on all 7 categories of road are predicted. The effect of the Road Safety Act, 1967, is taken into account.
