IV SOCIAL COST OF MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISIONS IN ONTARIO A. INTRODUCTION This chapter presents the social cost of motor vehicle collisions in Ontario for 2004 based on the costs and allocation methods discussed in the previous chapter. B. SOCIAL COSTS Exhibit IV-1 presents our estimate of the social costs of motor vehicles collisions using the willingness to pay (WTP) method for valuing human consequences and the medium scenario for this value. The social costs are presented in millions of dollars in the base year 2004. Social costs estimated based on collision identified in ORSAR for 2004 (See Exhibit III-1), adjustments to reflect under-reporting and misreporting in the data (See Section III B and Exhibit III-3), estimates of other characteristics of injured persons (See Section III C), estimates of resource use as a result of collision (See Section III D), and values for human consequences (See Section III E) and non-human consequences (See Section III F). Using the medium WTP estimates and the analysis and parameters previously described, the social cost of motor vehicle collisions for 2004 is $17.9 billion. Total social cost by collision severity is: Fatal—$11.5 billion; Injury—$5.0 billion; and PDO— $1.3 billion. The average social cost by collision severity is: Fatal—$15.7 million; Injury—$82 thousand; and PDO—$8 thousand. The average collision had a social cost of $77 thousand in 2004. Human consequence of the collision represents the largest component of costs at $15 billion (84%) with fatalities comprising $11 billion of this sub-total (62% of all social costs). Other consequences are significant at $2.9 billion (16%). Major contributors to social costs among non-human consequences are property damage and other losses normally paid through insurance at $1.8 million (6%), traffic delay costs at $502 million (2.8%), out-of-pocket expenses which will include property damages that are not reimbursed through insurance at $206 million (1.2%), hospital/health care costs at $123 million (0.7%), tow truck services at $96 million (0.5%), fire department response at $91 million (0.5%), and police services at $85 million (0.5%).
