Various systems for rating secondary safety of particular makes and models of vehicles have been developed internationally. These measures generally evaluate crashworthiness (the ability of the vehicle to protect its own occupants in the event of a crash) separately from aggressivity (the harm a vehicle is liable to impose on other road users into which it crashes). This paper describes an approach using Australian and New Zealand data that combines these two facets of secondary safety into one 'Total Secondary Safety Index' estimated from real world crash outcomes. The Index estimates the risk of death or serious injury to all key road users in crashes involving light passenger vehicles across the full range of crash types. This paper describes the rationale and method for producing this Index, together with some estimates for common Australian and New Zealand makes and models of light passenger vehicles.
已经开发出了各种用于评估特定汽车品牌和型号的二级安全性的系统。这些措施通常分别评估耐撞性(车辆在发生碰撞时保护自身乘员的能力)和攻击性(车辆在碰撞中可能对其他道路使用者造成的伤害)。本文描述了一种使用澳大利亚和新西兰数据的方法,该方法将二级安全的这两个方面结合到一个从实际碰撞结果估计的“总体二级安全指数”中。该指数估计了涉及轻型客车的各种碰撞类型中所有关键道路使用者的死亡或重伤风险。本文描述了产生该指数的基本原理和方法,以及一些常见的澳大利亚和新西兰轻型客车品牌和型号的估计值。
