N2  - An accidentology investigation called "TYPOLOGY' is carried out in two phases. The first study was conducted between 1981 and 1983. Ten years later, the second one started in 1993 and will be completed end 1994. In the second study, it is attempted to analyse pedestrian injury trends, taking into account the pedestrian's profile development according to sex, and age.Particular attention is paid to lower limb injuries, and especially possible changes in the lesion distribution over the length of the leg. In the study the Injury Impairment Scale (IIS) is introduced which makes it possible to measure the severity level of the physiological injury or the importance of the physical handicap suffered by the injured person and which is associated to Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) 90.<p />
