Question: In an experiment conducted to study the effectiveness of an eye-level third brake light in the prevention of rear-end collisions, 250 of the 500 highway patrol cars of a certain state were equipped with such lights. At the end of the 1-yr trial period, the records revealed that for those equipped with a third brake light there were 14 incidents of rear-end collision. There were 22 such incidents involving the cars not equipped with the accessory. Based on these data, what is the probability that a highway patrol car equipped with a third brake light will be rear-ended within a 1-yr period? What is the probability that a car not so equipped will be rear-ended within a 1-yr period?
