A CRUDE FRAMEWORK FOR BYPASSING EXPOSURE

AN IDEA, ORIGINALLY DUE TO THORPE, FOR MAKING "EXPOSURE-CORRECTING" TRANSFORMATIONS OF RAW ACCIDENT DATA IS FORMULATED IN MATHEMATICAL TERMS. A MORE CONSISTENT GENERALIZATION OF THORPE'S FORMULA IS DERIVED AND A HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE IS GIVEN IN BOTH SYSTEMS. THE METHOD IS APPLIED TO COMPUTING THE EXPOSURE-CORRECTED ACCIDENT RATES OF MEN, WOMEN, AND JUVENILE DRIVERS. /HSL/
