Review: These are the 26 papers from the conference held in London in May 2002. They report new research and development in the field, the outcome of new design solutions, and their application in the overall field of road vehicle safety. The papers, from authors worldwide, come under the headings: accident analysis (global priorities, risk factors in accidents, airbag effectiveness etc.); side impact; compatibility; active safety; rear impact; other issues (safety belts, wheelchair passengers, personal security of female drivers and passengers); and pedestrian safety.
