The purpose of the research was to apply the basic NHTSA pedestrian and bicyclist typologies to a sample of recent crashes and to refine and update the crash type distributions with particular attention to roadway and locational factors. Five thousand pedestrian- and 3,000 bicycle-motor vehicle crashes were coded in a population-based sample drawn from the States of California, Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina, and Utah. The pedestrian-based sample drawn from the States of California, Florida, Maryland, Minnesota, North Carolina, and Utah. The pedestrian-motor vehicle crash types distributed as: Special circumstances 2.6 percent, Vehicle specific - 9.1 percent, Disabled/Emergency vehicle-related - 2.4 percent Working/Playing in roadway - 3.0 pecent, Walking along road/Crossing expressway - 7.9 percent, Not in road - 8.6 percent, Intersection-related -32.1 percent, Midblock - 26.4 percent, and Other or inadequate information - 7.8 percent. This particular informational guide provides detail on specific pedestrian-motor vehicle crash types (e.g., intersection dash) through two-page layouts that contain a sketch, description, and summary of the crash type, various graphs, and 'bullet' information boxes.
