HIGHWAY CRASH COSTS The costs of highway crashes are used for many purposes, including allocating highway safety resources to maximize safety benefits, evaluating proposed safety regulations, and convincing policy makers and employers that safety programs are beneficial.
The latter method incorporates quality-of-life considerations as well as the direct and indirect costs of resources lost in a crash; hence, it is the method recommended for generating the "comprehensive crash benefits" used in the B/C analysis of proposed highway safety projects (Jacks, 1987).
The cost of implementing a crash countermeasure will depend on many project-specific variables which are difficult to quantify at the planning stage, not the least of which is the appropriate scale of application.
