Motor vehicle injuries are a major harmful side effect of industrialization. We examine this relationship in rapidly industrializing country, Taiwan, using Potential Productive Years Life Lost (PPYLL) analysis, and suggest ways that the injury toll industrialization might be mitigated. also compare Taiwan to US, Hungary, Korea, Chile. has higher PPYLL per 100,000 population due motor (530/100,000) than cardiac disease, cancer, or strokes.
