Appendix A—Detail on Calculations of the Ontario Model<br />

Exhibit A-4<br />

Allocation of Additional Injuries among Collision Severity Categories<br />

for 2004<br />

Collision Severity<br />

Fatal Injury PDO TOTAL<br />

Vehicles damaged:<br />

Demolished # 711 10,635 6,634 17,980<br />

Demolished % 4% 59% 37% 100%<br />

Allocated Additional Injuries:<br />

Major 68 1,022 637 1,728<br />

Minor 1,219 18,222 11,366 30,807<br />

Minimal 763 11,413 7,119 19,295<br />

Exhibit A-5 presents the initial allocation of additional injuries and fatalities<br />

among collision severity categories. Note that the allocation methods identify fatalities<br />

among injury collisions and injuries among PDOs. Next we move collisions between<br />

severity categories to restore the original definitions within the model.<br />
