Consumer Product Safety Regulation in the United States and the United Kingdom: The Case of Bicycles
利用月度伤害率数据，分析美国和英国自行车安全法规对事故率的影响，发现两国法规均显著降低了每辆在用自行车的事故数，且美国效果更大。
This study analyzes the effect of bicycle safety regulation in the United States and the United Kingdom using data on monthly injury rates. Unlike many previous studies of product safety regulation, a specific product regulation is analyzed, and long data series are available. In both countries, the regulation led to a significant decrease in accidents per bicycle in use. The effect in the United States is larger than in the United Kingdom.
