Study by Justin Tyndall:
• Combine US pedestrian crash data with physical measurements of vehicle height.

• The effect of front-end vehicle height on pedestrian death probability is estimated.

• A 10 cm increase in front-end height causes a 22% increase in pedestrian fatality risk.

• The survival probability of women, children, and seniors are more strongly affected.
