What does it mean to conduct ethical research after disasters? A case study of the 3.11 disaster in Japan
The 3.11 disaster in Fukushima Prefecture, Japan, is a useful case study through which to interrogate research ethics. This region has been the site of a high degree of research interest, which sometimes presented a source of stress to local communities. This study examines researcher perspectives on the ethics of post-disaster health research. Qualitative interviews were conducted with these informants, who noted that recovering communities expe…
Motorcycle licensure, ownership, and injury crash involvement
The interrelationships among motorcycle licensure, ownership, and injury crash involvement were investigated in a sample of 2,723 motorcycle drivers severely or fatally injured in California in 1985-86. Owners of motorcycles in such crashes ("driver-owners") were less likely to have valid licenses than a random sample of motorcycle owners who had not been in crashes (42 vs. 57 percent). Thirty-three percent of the crash-involved drivers had valid…
Driver age and crash involvement
The youngest and oldest drivers have the highest crash risk, but the problem lies predominantly in the youngest age groups because elderly drivers have low exposure. The elderly driver problem will increase gradually as their share of the population increases but will remain relatively small. The bulk of the problem will continue to reside among drivers younger than age 65, particularly the youngest drivers
Coverage gaps in seat belt use laws
Some seat belt use laws exempt occupants in certain seating positions and in certain types of vehicles, or both. A state-by-state analysis was conducted of the extent to which passenger vehicle occupants killed before the laws went into effect would have been covered by the laws subsequently passed. Only five states had laws that covered all passenger vehicle occupants; the majority excluded 4 to 8 per cent and six states excluded 14 per cent or …
Variations in minimum licensing age and fatal motor vehicle crashes
The effect of differences in the legal minimum licensing age on fatal motor vehicle crashes was studied in New Jersey (age 17), Massachusetts (age 16 1/2), and Connecticut (age 16). New Jersey's 17-year-old licensing law was associated with greatly reduced fatal crash involvement. It is estimated that 65 to 85 per cent reductions in 16 year-old-driver fatal crash involvement can be expected if the licensing age is increased from 16 to 17 without …
