Your area of research is fascinating and obviously explicitly takes into account multilevel influences. I also appreciate your consideration of different points at which these influences can act - from prevention to treatment. We will talk more about this towards the end of the course when we read another piece by Camara Jones on the social determinants of equity. I am sure you are considering both individual level determinants as well as neighborhood level determinants such as density etc. I would also think that the increased risk to lower SES individuals from having an accident would be related to lower baseline health status, especially in urban inner city environments - as well as decreased access to quality and timely health services.
Obviously your area has a lot of interaction with policy, which we will address in more detail in week 6 with Rita Hamad. I appreciate your attention to how structural racism plays out with respect to these policies, and would be interested in thinking about how that has changed over time as the history of urbanization has evolved (including around the use of congestion charges).
