This study proposes a total secondary safety index for light passenger vehicles that rates the relative performance of vehicles in protecting both their own occupants and other road users in the full range of real world crash circumstances. The index estimates the risk of death or serious injury to key road users in crashes involving light passenger vehicles across the full range of crash types. The proposed index has been estimated from real world crash data from Australasia and was able to identify vehicles that have superior or inferior total secondary safety characteristics compared with the average vehicle.
本研究提出了一种轻型乘用车的总体二级安全指数，该指数对车辆在各种现实世界碰撞情况下保护自身乘员和其他道路使用者的相对性能进行评级。该指数估计了在涉及轻型乘用车的各类碰撞事故中，关键道路使用者死亡或受重伤的风险。所提出的指数是根据来自澳大拉西亚的现实世界碰撞数据估算得出的，并且能够识别出与普通车辆相比，具有更好或更差总体二级安全特性的车辆。
