Abstract

Induced exposure "in the narrow sense" refers to exposure to vehicular collision only, and is modelled by a scheme which equates the proportion of single vehicle collisions experienced by a category of driver/vehicles to the proportion of double vehicle collisions in which that driver/vehicle combination was guilty, and which equates the exposure for the category to the proportion not guilty in double vehicle collisions. Induced exposure "in the wide sense" refers to all types of hazard, and separates the data into four categories by a hypothesis that factors relating to an accident are either internal or external for each of the two driver/vehicle combinations involved, where, for single car collisions, one of the "driver/ vehicle" categories is the type of accident, with the restriction that internal factors do not exist in the case where driver/vehicle represents type of single vehicle accident.
