In this Episode we speak to Adam Barrow the head of collision research for TRL. Adam talks to us about how he and his team assess the scenes of Road Traffic Collisions, how car safety features work and how thinking about the injury experience during a collision can support our practice and care for injured patients.

Every year in England and wales 1.4 million people attend A+E with a head injury, this makes up just over 6.5% of the presentations that Emergency departments see with 20% of them being admitted.
