Project summary
This project will explore the links between deprivation and vehicle technologies. Through matching multiple datasets, the project will carry out a complete analysis of vehicle safety technologies fitted to a large sample of cars involved in recorded collisions. The dataset, together with neighbourhood characteristics, will be reviewed and a report produced analysing and understanding the links between vehicle safety features and deprivation. The project will also deliver a consumer guide on vehicle technology safety specifically aimed at supporting buying decisions for used vehicles.
