摘要：In this paper we investigate the long-term relationship between the economic growth in China and the number of people who died in traffic accident by using the time series data in the period from 1990 to 2008 in China. Our study found an inverted U-shaped relationship between the economic growth and the number of people who were killed in traffic accidents. The number of death in traffic accidents increased with the development of economy in early stage. However, as the economy has been developed into certain level, the mortality rate of the traffic accidents start to decrease, which clearly indicates that the Smeed�s law can also be applied in China. Besides the level of economic development, we also analyses some other factors that may influence traffic accidents. These factors can either accelerate or decelerate the inverted U-shape relationship.
