Notes on this study

Minor injury: defined as an injury that requires some medical treatment but no hospitalisation. An aggregated Value of Risk Reduction is obtained by converting the WTP per person per trip to a WTP per person per kilometre, and then multiply by the inverse of the chance of death or injury class. Hence, WTP per person per trip estimates are available in the paper.

Serious injury: defined as an injury that requires hospitalisation for a long period and results in some permanent disability. To obtain an aggregated VRR, convert the WTP per person per trip to a WTP per person per kilometre, and then multiply by the inverse of the chance of death or injury class. Hence, WTP per person per trip estimates are available in the paper.
