Standardized injury rates and seat belt effectiveness measures are derived from a probability sample of towaway accidents involving 1973-1975 model cars. The data were collected in five different geographic regions. Weighted sample size available for the analysis is 15,818 occupants for which there is complete information on belt usage, injury level, age, crash configuration, vehicle weight, and damage severity. Volume II contains a variety of tables detailing who was involved in the accidents investigated, where and when they occurred, and what make and model car was involved. This volume also serves as a 'Fact Book' of information describing belt usage by various sub-populations; occupant injuries (including fatalities and belt-caused injuries); malfunction, defeat or maladjustment of belts; ejection; and problems encountered by unusual occupants.
