RESPONSE TO ACCIDENTS AS A MEANS OF CASUALTY REDUCTION AND SECONDARY ACCIDENT PREVENTION
The purpose of this paper is to report on research undertaken in the United Kingdom to determine the scale and nature of benefits associated with emergency telephone provision on all-purpose roads. Because the results of this work have not been formally publicized in the United Kingdom either through the publication of papers or the issuing of design guidance, the results must, of necessity, be stated in a broad-brush and generalized form for the purposes of this Conference.
