Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National Transportation Safety Board reviewed the NASS program and prepared a report of findings titled, "Safety Effectiveness Evaluation of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's National Accident Sampling System," NTSB Report No. NTSB-SEE-78-1, dated March 2, 1978. In this document the NTSB reported: 1. Nationally representative highway accident data are needed. 2. If attained, the publicly stated objectives of NASS will provide valuable information to the nation's highway safety program. 3. The NASS plan for the near future emphasizes motor vehicle crashworthiness and primarily supports NHTSA's mission. 4. The NASS program alone will provide limited capability for evaluating many countermeasures. 5. The implementation of NASS has proceeded beyond the level of planning. 6. Through improved planning and broader perspective NASS could become an important part of the national highway safety program.

This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are approximately 4,000 fatalities in crashes involving trucks and buses in the United States each year. Though estimates are wide-ranging, possibly 10 to 20 percent of these crashes might have involved fatigued drivers. The stresses associated with their particular jobs (irregular schedules, etc.) and the lifestyle that many truck and bus drivers lead, puts them at substantial risk for insufficient sleep and for developing short- and long-term health problems. Commercial Motor Vehicle Driver Fatigue, Long-Term Health and Highway Safety assesses the state of knowledge about the relationship of such factors as hours of driving, hours on duty, and periods of rest to the fatigue experienced by truck and bus drivers while driving and the implications for the safe operation of their vehicles. This report evaluates the relationship of these factors to drivers' health over the longer term, and identifies improvements in data and research methods that can lead to better understanding in both areas.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to establish empirical relationships between truck accidents and highway geometric design. First, statistical frameworks based on Poisson and negative binomial regression models were proposed. Preliminary models were then developed using accidents and road inventory data from the Highway Safety Information System (HSIS). Three roadway classes were considered in the model development: rural Interstate, urban Interstate and freeway, and rural two-lane undivided arterial. The maximum likelihood method was used for estimation of model parameters. Information criterion, asymptotic t-statistic, and goodness-of-fit test statistics were employed to evaluate the estimated models. The model results based on data from one of the HSIS States--Utah, were used for analysis and for suggesting areas in which the quality and quantity of the existing HSIS data can be enhanced to improve the developed models. Despite the limitations in existing Utah data, some encouraging preliminary relationships were developed for horizontal curvature, length of curve, vertical grade, length of grade, shoulder width, number of lanes, and annual average daily traffic (AADT) per lane (a surrogate measure for vehicle flow density).
