Description
Summary:[...]to avoid conflict of interest, I donated all of my consulting income (from lawyers, the Indian Health Service, Ford Motor Company, and several universities) to university based injury prevention programs. [...]in two books, I proposed an alternative to case by case litigation that would put personal injury lawyers out of the vehicle defect litigation business while providing an incentive for safer vehicle designs. 3, 4 Evans further attacked my integrity by inferring that my research is of "sought-after" effects. Since we have never met nor corresponded, Evans has no basis for attributing motives to me.
