Abstract
This study develops a method of estimating costs for selected Texas accidents using cost data developed for accident involvements in Massachusetts, Illinois, New Mexico and Utah. Given the number and type (car/truck) of vehicles involved and the number of fatally injured persons, accident costs can be derived using the direct cost per involvement and loss of| future earnings estimates presented in the report.| Also, accident rates for selected highway designs and for various average daily traffic counts are presented and analyzed.
