Review: "This is a book about road safety issues, mainly concerned with road accident data collection, analyses, monitoring, and countermeasure evaluations. The statistical and econometric techniques developed by the author and used in this book can also be used to collect data and monitor, analyze, and evaluate many public programs in the social sciences, health, engineering, and humanities fields."--Jacket.
