abstract="Accident reports from the Maryland Automated Accident Reporting System show that, during the period 1980-1983 there has been a significant increase in the proportion of automobile collisions with injuries deemed &quot;incapacitating&quot; in the face of a relatively stable rate of fatal accidents. This increase is primarily attributable to collisions involving &quot;other motor vehicles in transport.&quot; Other categories of collisions, including those involving pedestrians or fixed objects, have not shown a similar increase. The fact that this increase in injury is attributable primarily to collisions involving another car, may reflect the trend toward smaller, more fuel-efficient cars.  <p>Language: en</p>",
