More than 153,000 Americans die annually as a result of accidental injuries-nearly half of them from motor vehicle accidents, the rest from falls, bums, poisoning, and other causes. Injuries are the leading cause ofdeath between ages I and 44, and account for approximately 55 percent offatalities for those aged 15 to 24. Further, it is estimated that in 1979 70 million people suffered non-fatal accidental injuries requiring medical treatment. In 1980, the damage, injury, and lost productivity resulting from accidents cost the Nation an estimated $83.2 billion.
