Why are injury risks higher for women?
Women are more likely than men to suffer serious injuries in crashes, but the reasons may not be physical.

A series of crash tests by IIHS and partners shows that impact speeds of 50 mph or 56 mph are far more likely to lead to injury or death than 40 mph impacts.
Red light camera benefits
A large body of research supports the use of red light cameras to reduce crashes. Programs should focus on safety, not revenue.
