Abstract |
This report contains four individual analyses related to the safety impact of increased small car usage and automobile weight reductions to improve fuel economy: (1) Fuel economy as a function of weight, performance, and driving schedule; (2) Traffic control for safety and fuel economy; (3) Weight versus safety; (4) Effects of speed limits on fuel economy and safety. |
