    VEHICLE SAFETY RATINGS ESTIMATED FROM POLICE REPORTED CRASH DATA: 2006 UPDATE AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND CRASHES DURING 1987-2004 by Stuart Newstead Linda Watson & Max Cameron Report No. 248 June 2006 Project Sponsored By ii MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE MONASH UNIVERSITY ACCIDENT RESEARCH CENTRE REPORT DOCUMENTATION PAGE Report No. Report Date ISBN Pages 248 June 2006 0 7326 2318 9 90 + Appendices Title and sub-title: VEHICLE SAFETY RATINGS ESTIMATED FROM POLICE REPORTED CRASH DATA: 2006 UPDATE AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND CRASHES DURING 1987-2004 Author(s) Type of Report & Period Covered Newstead, S.V., Cameron, M.H. and Watson, L.M. Summary Report, 1982-2004 Sponsoring Organisations - This project was funded as contract research by the following organisations: Road Traffic Authority of NSW, Royal Automobile Club of Victoria Ltd, NRMA Ltd, VicRoads, Royal Automobile Club of Western Australia Ltd, Transport Accident Commission and Land Transport New Zealand, the Road Safety Council of Western Australia, the New Zealand Automobile Association and by a grant from the Australian Transport Safety Bureau Abstract: Crashworthiness ratings measure the relative safety of vehicles in preventing severe injury to their own drivers in crashes whilst aggressivity ratings measure the serious injury risk vehicles pose to drivers of other vehicles and unprotected road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists. Updated crashworthiness ratings and aggressivity ratings for 1982- 2004 model vehicles were estimated based on data on crashes in Victoria and New South Wales during 1987-2004 and in Queensland, Western Australia and New Zealand during 1991-2004. Both crashworthiness and aggressivity were measured by a combination of injury severity (the risk of death or serious injury given an injury was sustained) and injury risk (the risk of injury given crash involvement).

    Movement is the universal language of personal freedom. Our founder Louis Chevrolet spoke it fluently. As a Swiss immigrant, he came to America with a dream of racing cars. He wished for everyone — not just the rich or entitled — to experience the exhilaration he felt behind the wheel. In 1911, he began building his first car. One hundred years later, a new Chevrolet is sold every 6.6 seconds. That amounts to 4.76 million vehicles in more than 140 countries — more than Louis Chevrolet could ever have imagined. The depth of our heritage and passion is evident in everything we do here at Chevrolet. It’s ingrained in the bold design, spirited performance, proven durability and exceptional value our drivers enjoy. It empowers us to be leaders in innovation. And it inspires us to continuously raise the bar — today, tomorrow and into what promises to be a bright future. Currently, we are pioneering new propulsion technologies to meet the demanding energy and environmental needs of a global automotive brand. We’re also employing alternative energy sources and investing in fuel-saving technologies to help reduce our carbon footprint with the goal of reducing 8 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions over the next few years. Our global reach is expanding, yet our mission remains the same. We want every customer to feel like family — no matter where you are in the world. And no matter where you’re going, we want you to enjoy the ride in a Chevrolet. From the vision of one to the journey of many, Chevy Runs Deep.

Page 2 of 23 2020 Monaro Nationals Judging Manual & Class Guidelines (Wild to Wonderful) Classification and Judging Overview The primary objective of the Monaro Nationals is for owners to gather together and celebrate a true Australian icon - the Holden Monaro. The cars are the stars here and to ensure a fair system of judging is in place for the wide variety of Monaros and derivatives on display, a range of classes based on how each vehicle presents have been developed. From the showroom standard example to the wildest of expression in personal taste - all are catered for in one way or another. Monaro means many things to many people and this is reflected in no less than ten (10) classes available for judging to ensure every vehicle attending is correctly and fairly classified/judged.
