Fragments of coloured plastic or glass are often found at the sites of collisions involving motor vehicles. A sample of 17 roundabout junctions was inspected weekly for nine weeks, to study the frequency and occurrence of such debris, and to find whether its rate of occurence was correlated with the long-term rate of injury accidents reported to the police at these junctions. To make the comparison, measurement of the traffic flows were obtained, and the police accident records were studied for the previous 3 years. (Author)
