Download or read book Transport Planning and Traffic Safety written by Geetam Tiwari and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recognition of the importance of road safety as a major health issue, the World Health Organization has declared 2011-2021 the Decade of Safety Action. Several countries in Europe, North America, and Asia have been successful in reducing fatalities and injuries due to road traffic crashes. However, many low-income countries continue to experience high rates of traffic fatalities and injuries. Transport Planning and Traffic Safety: Making Cities, Roads, and Vehicles Safer offers a source book for road safety training courses as well as an introductory textbook for graduate-level courses on road safety taught in engineering institutes. It brings together the international experiences and lessons learned from countries which have been successful in reducing traffic crashes and their applicability in low-income countries. The content is based on lectures delivered during an international course on transportation planning and traffic safety, sponsored annually by the Transportation Research and Injury Prevention Programme (TRIPP) at the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. The book is interdisciplinary and aimed at professionals—traffic and road engineers, vehicle designers, law enforcers, and transport planners. The authors examine trends in performance of OECD countries and highlight the public health and systems approach of traffic safety with the vulnerable road user in focus. Topics include land use (transportation planning, mobility, and safety), safety education and legislation, accident analysis, road safety research, human tolerance to injury, vehicle design, safety in construction zones, safety in urban areas, traffic calming, public transportation, safety laws and policies, and pre-hospital care of the injured.

Book excerpt: Human factors. Road users. Driver training. Research. Driver behaviour. Inexperienced drivers. Enforcement. Publicity. Driver licensing. Vehicles. Motorcycles. Bicycles. Roads. Alcohol. Drug abuse. Pedestrians. Research findings within each of the major human factor areas of road safety research are reviewed. Attention is confined to research relevant to the prevention of road crashes rather than to the amelioration of their effects. The main concern is the road user : road and vehicle factors are considered only to the extent that they interact with the road user characteristics in relation to crash prevention or causation. The purpose of the review was to establish those areas in which there is the greatest need for further research; acccordingly, the review concludes with a list of recommended research topics.

Download or read book Measuring Road Safety with Surrogate Events written by Andrew Tarko and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measuring Road Safety Using Surrogate Events provides researchers and practitioners with the tools they need to quickly and effectively measure traffic safety. As traditional crash-based safety analyses are being undermined by today’s growing use of intelligent vehicular and road safety technologies, crash surrogates--or near misses--can be more effectively used to measure the future risk of crashes. This book advances the idea of using these near-crash techniques to deliver quicker and more adequate measurements of safety. It explores the relationships between traffic conflicts and crashes using an extrapolation of observed events rather than post-crash data, which is significantly slower to obtain. Readers will find sound estimation methods based on rigorous scientific principles, offering compelling new tools to better equip researchers to understand road safety and its factors. Consolidates the latest updates/ideas from disparate places into a single resource Establishes a consistent use of key terms, definitions and concepts to help codify this emerging field Contains numerous application-oriented case studies throughout Includes learning aids, such as chapter objectives, a glossary, and links to data used in examples

Book excerpt: " ROAD SAFETY is a significant world-wide problem. At present, almost 1.2 million persons are killed, and between 20 and 50 million are injured in road crashes globally each year. To give an idea of the enormity of the global road safety problem, in the year 2000 war and conflict were responsible for just over 300,000 deaths. In Australia, close to 1,600 persons are killed on the roads each year, and for each fatal crash there are about 10 crashes involving serious injury, and many more crashes involving minor injury and /or property damage only. The total cost of road crashes in Australia has been estimated at about $15 billion per year. In addition, there is untold pain and suffering. In Australia, as in other highly motorised countried, the road toll, in terms of fatilities per 100,000 population, has been declining over the last two or three decades or so, although the rate of decrease has tended to lessen since the late 1990's. This substantial reduction in the fatality rate came about largely as far-sighted and positive legislation ( for example, use of seat belts, blood alcohol limits and speed controls), vigourous publicity campaigns, and active enforcement, and to a somewhat lesser extent effective road and vechicle improvement programs. In the less motorised countries of the world, the road toll is continuing to increase. Further significant reduction in the road toll will require continued effort to encourage improved road user behaviour by the use of appropriate education, training, publicity and enforcement programs. In addition, much more emphasis should be given to the wider application of known and effective road and vehicle safety measures, and to speed management. These have the potential to substantially reduce the number and severity of road crashes. The aim of ROAD SAFETY - Strategies and Solutions is to provide some understanding of the road safety problem and how it might be tackled, and to set out practical strategies and solutions that hopefully will be of assistance to those concerned with addressing the problem.
