Consider the following data for 2008 in a small suburban community:

1. number of accidents: 360 fatal 10 injury 36 pdo 314
2. number of fatalities 15
3. area population: 50,000
4. registered vehicles 35,000
5. annual vmt: 12,000,000
6. average speed 30 mi/hr

compute all relevant exposure and population based accident and fatality rates for this data. compare these to national norms for the current year. (hint: use the internet to location current national norms)

Now ray has had the tires for two months and he notices that the tread has started to pull away from the tire. he has already contacted the place who sold the tires and calmly and accurately explained the problem. they didn’t him because they no longer carry that tire. so he talked with the manager and he still did not get the tire replaced. his consumer rights are being violated. pretend you are ray and write a letter to the company’s headquarters. here are some points to keep in mind when writing the letter: include your name, address, and account number, if appropriate. describe your purchase (name of product, serial numbers, date and location of purchase). state the problem and give the history of how you tried to resolve the problem. ask for a specific action. include how you can be reached.
