abstract="Questions such as frequency and severity of injuries for various body parts as well as injury frequency and severity caused by exterior car parts are discussed. The influence of car parameters such as front shape, front length and curb-mass are investigated. The paper deals also with the question of the correlation between car parameters and injuries of pedestrian in real accidents. But the car parameters were chosen more systematically and in another way. Special attention was paid to the question of the optimal bumper height during consideration of injuries caused by the bumper as well as during consideration of the overall injury severity of the pedestrian.<p />",
