For accident prevention expenditure, expected accidents and expected losses must be associated with them. Unfortunately, there is severe undercoverage of the most common accidents, which have a low cost per accident, but can be significant to the overall cost of accidents. Few studies have accurately quantified the total cost of accidents. [1] Total costs at a given level of prevention are less pension expenses plus losses resulting from accidents that have not been avoided. If the objective is to minimise the overall cost of accidents, the cost of prevention should be included. Guido Calabresi`s The Costs of Accidents: A Legal and Economic Analysis is a work in the tradition of law and economics, as it offers an analysis of the economic effectiveness of tort law rules. The text was first published in 1970 by Yale University Press. The central objective of tort law is not to minimize losses resulting from individual accidents, since the total accident costs of each economically fertile activity/industry include both the expected costs of accidental accidents and the actual costs of avoiding accidents. 6 The two most important articles are “Some Thoughts on Risk Distribution in the Law of Torts” (1961) 70 Yale L.J. 499; “The Decision for Accidents: An Approach to Non-Reason Allocation of Costs” (1965) 78 Harv.
