Abstract

Assuming a probability distribution of the loss of life quality for each level of impairment, this paper estimates a range for the expected loss of life quality caused by serious (requiring hospitalisation) nonfatal traffic injuries. The results obtained are close to those determined independently in the United Kingdom.
