Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traffic crashes are a particular concern in urban areas, where the occurrence of a collision heightens the risk of subsequent secondary crashes upstream, particularly under high levels of traffic congestion. There is considerable difficulty in estimating the number of such crashes, and in identifying roadway locations and circumstances where the risks of such crashes are most pronounced. In light of these concerns, there is significant value in advancing our understanding of these issues, including our ability to predict and mitigate the potential for secondary crashes on freeways. A significant challenge in this regard is the ability to effectively identify a secondary crash with respect to the both the spatial temporal thresholds within which secondary crashes occur. Contemporary approaches are often based on static spatiotemporal impact windows, or on dynamic approaches that consider traffic flow conditions. Both methods are subject to important limitations that are investigated as a part of this research. As a part of this study, crash data from the Michigan interstate system was used to identify secondary crashes. A detailed review of police crash reports is conducted to verify which crashes are secondary in nature by examining standard fields on the report form, as well as information from the narrative section completed by the investigating officer. The influence of spatiotemporal window sizing (relative to the time and location of the primary crash) is explored with respect to the sensitivity and specificity of secondary crash detection in order to determine thresholds that yield minimal error. A static approach based on a large number of predefined window sizes was used to compare the rate of secondary crash identification. The static method was shown to consistently overestimate secondary crash occurrence and these results varied across thresholds sizes. Subsequent efforts used a dynamic approach, where the window size was varied based upon changes in speed profiles on the associated road segments. Real-time traffic and speed data were used to identify secondary crashes and the results vary considerably based upon the method employed. The research also identified contextual environments where the risks of secondary crashes are most pronounced through the estimation of a series of regression models, culminating in guidance to assist road agencies in effectively monitoring and clearing crashes and other incidents to minimize the potential for secondary crashes.

Download or read book Evidence in Traffic Crash Investigation and Reconstruction written by Robert W. Rivers and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2006 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EVIDENCE IN TRAFFIC CRASH INVESTIGATION AND RECONSTRUCTION begins with a detailed description of the entire investigation process. The material then graduates into the various phases and levels of investigations, showing the levels of training and education normally associated with the levels of investigations and consequently the duties and responsibilities of the investigator and reconstructionist. Using narrative, schematics, and photographs, the mechanical inspection process is described in detail by identifying various vehicle parts, explanations of their functions, and methods of identifying failures. Human-related factors in traffic crash investigations are discussed at length, including the traffic crash viewed as a systems failure. Looming vulnerability, a recently developed theoretical construct that helps to describe and understand social, cognitive, organizational, and psychological mechanism, is described. Discussed also is the role of vision in driver performance; perception as a four-way process; perceptions and reactions; driver's reaction to stress; and the roles of pathologists, medical examiners, and coroners in traffic crash reconstruction. Who is an expert and expert evidence are described in detail. Errors that can occur in the investigation process and the tolerances that should be considered or allowed are explained. The manual also discusses the importance of calling upon the skills and advice of occupational specialists, such as reconstructionists, lawyers, traffic engineers, pathologists, medical examiners and others, to assist in the investigation and reconstruction of a crash that will ensure that the objectives of a thorough and complete investigation will be satisfied. Considerable effort has been made in the manual to explain how to identify, interpret and analyze all forms of highway marks and damages that can be used in the reconstruction of a vehicle-related crash. As a guide for investigators, prosecutors and defense attorneys, checkboxes are provided with many of the major topics that can be used as prompters in evaluating the thoroughness of an investigation or for those areas that might or might not need additional coverage at trial or litigation proceedings. To meet international requirements, mathematical references are described in both English (U.S.) and SI (metric) measurement systems, accompanied by various appendices covering symbols and mathematical conversions. Finally, there is a comprehensive quick-find index that takes the reader directly to any topic, formulae, or subject matter - or any combination of these.

This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Global status report on road safety 2015, reflecting information from 180 countries, indicates that worldwide the total number of road traffic deaths has plateaued at 1.25 million per year, with the highest road traffic fatality rates in low-income countries. In the last three years, 17 countries have aligned at least one of their laws with best practice on seat-belts, drink-driving, speed, motorcycle helmets or child restraints. While there has been progress towards improving road safety legislation and in making vehicles safer, the report shows that the pace of change is too slow. Urgent action is needed to achieve the ambitious target for road safety reflected in the newly adopted 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development: halving the global number of deaths and injuries from road traffic crashes by 2020. Made possible through funding from Bloomberg Philanthropies, this report is the third in the series, and provides a snapshot of the road safety situation globally, highlighting the gaps and the measures needed to best drive progress."--Publisher's description.
