\title{
Data from a Simulated Motorcycle Accident
}
\description{
The \code{motor} data frame has 94 rows and 4 columns.  The rows are
obtained by removing replicate values of \code{time} from the dataset 
\code{\link{mcycle}}.  Two extra columns are added to allow for strata with
a different residual variance in each stratum.
}
\usage{
motor
}
\format{
This data frame contains the following columns:
\describe{
\item{\code{times}}{
The time in milliseconds since impact.
}
\item{\code{accel}}{
The recorded head acceleration (in g).
}
\item{\code{strata}}{
A numeric column indicating to which of the three strata (numbered 1, 2 and 3)
the observations belong.
}
\item{\code{v}}{
An estimate of the residual variance for the observation.  \code{v} is constant
within the strata but a different
estimate is used for each of the three strata.
