Single-Vehicle Run-Off-Road Crash Prediction Model Associated with Pavement Characteristics
This study aims to evaluate the impact of pavement physical characteristics on the frequency of single-vehicle run-off-road (ROR) crashes in two-lane separated rural highways. In order to achieve this goal and to introduce the most accurate crash prediction model (CPM), authors have tried to develop generalized linear models, including the Poisson regression (PR), negative binomial regression (...
متن کاملThe Effect of Roadside Elements on Driver Behavior and Run-Off-the-Road Crash Severity
Roadside vegetation provides numerous environmental and psychological benefits to drivers. Previous studies have shown that natural landscapes can effectively lower crash rates and cause less stress and frustration to the driver. However, runoff the road crashes resulting in a collision with a tree are twice as likely to result in a fatality, thus reinforcing the need to examine the placement o...
متن کاملDynamic Vehicle Simulation to Evaluate Countermeasure Systems for Run-Off-Road Crashes
An important part of ITS (Intelligent Transportation Systems, formerly IVHS) is the development of collision avoidance systems. These systems continuously sense the dynamic state of the vehicle and the roadway situation, and they assess the potential for a collision. When the system determines that an emergency situation might be developing, it wams the driver to take evasive action. Such count...
متن کاملA Pilot Study on Mitigating Run-Off-Road Crashes
Run off the road crashes account for approximately 50% of motor vehicle related fatalities on a national and on a state level. To address this unacceptably high rate of fatalities this pilot project first sought to identify the primary factors associated with run off the road crashes and identify limitations and shortcomings of existing countermeasures. This was accomplished through the develop...
متن کاملYoung Drivers and Run-Off-the-Road Crashes
Motor vehicle crashes are one of the leading causes of death among young Americans. They also experience higher percentage of single vehicle, Run-off-the-road (ROR) crashes compared to other drivers. When looking at the methods of improving the alarming death rate of young drivers, it is important to identify the determinants of higher crash and injury severity. With that intention, the study d...
