mmmm.... I like "Road Trauma", it goes nicely with "Roadkill" and
"Roadrunner" (meep meep). Can anyone tell me why Coyote always survives? Our
patients die for much less.

MVA is obsolete, try "Road Trauma" it includes the pedestrians, cyclists,
and abbreviates to R/T, What do people think about the term
"overdose" we try to inculcate the less perjorative " Deliberate Self
Harm"
