Book Characteristics of Injury and Fatality of Run off road Crashes on Ohio Roadways

Download or read book Characteristics of Injury and Fatality of Run off road Crashes on Ohio Roadways written by Omar Eid Almutairi and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A run-off-road (ROR) crash or a roadway departure crash is a non-intersection crash which occurs after a vehicle crosses an edge line or a center line (i.e., leaves its designated traveled way and in the process the vehicle collides with a non-traversable obstacle or another vehicle travelling in the opposite direction or hits a pedestrian, or the vehicle overturns. The main objective of this thesis study was to determine the factors that contribute significantly to the levels of injury severity when ROR crashes occur. This study used a 5-year crash data for years 2008 - 2012 obtained from the Ohio Department of Public Safety. The decision tree model in conjunction with generalized ordered logit model was used to investigate characteristics of injury and fatality of run-off-road crashes in Ohio. The decision tree modeling was used for exploratory data analysis identified eight factors that explain a large amount of the variation in the response variable, injury severity. These important predictors for injury severity include road condition, run-off-road (ROR) crash types, posted speed limit, vehicle type, gender, alcohol-related, road contour, and drug-related. Also, complex interactions between parameters were identified. The results from the generalized ordered logit regression show that the following are significant factors in increasing the likelihood of ROR injury severity levels: alcohol and drugs use, curves and grades, female victims, overturn/rollover crashes, ROR crashes on dry roadway surfaces. Additionally, buses, truck, and emergency vehicles, and ROR crashes on roadways with posted speed limits of 40 mph or higher increase the probability of injury severity.

Book Characteristics of Drivers who Cause Run off road crashes on Ohio Roadways

Download or read book Characteristics of Drivers who Cause Run off road crashes on Ohio Roadways written by Abdullah Faleh Alruwaished and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vehicle that leaves its travel lane at a non-intersection location and collides with another vehicle or with a fixed object or overturns is considered to be involved in a run-off-road (ROR) crash. ROR crashes also known as roadway departure crashes, and these include head-on crashes, crashes that occur due to lane shifts, and crashes where the vehicle leaves its designated travel lane. The main objective of this study was to identify the significant factors that lead to these types of crashes. Crash data used in this study were obtained from the Ohio Department of Public Safety for a five-year period from 2008 to 2012. The classification tree modeling was used in this study to investigate the significant predictor variables of crash severity of ROR crashes. In addition, this thesis study developed two models, the ROR crashes model and the non-run-off-road (NROR) crashes model. The NROR crashes model used crash data for drivers who were at fault when their crash incidents occurred and for ROR crashes; it was assumed that all drivers in this category were at fault of causing the crashes. The ROR model identified nine variables, which include road condition, collision type, alcohol related, posted speed limit, speed related, crash type, vehicle type, gender, and age. The NROR crashes model has six significant predictor variables including collision type, posted speed limit, speed related, road condition, alcohol related, and vehicle type.

Book Factors Related to Fatal Single Vehicle Run Off Road Crashes

Download or read book Factors Related to Fatal Single Vehicle Run Off Road Crashes written by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2013-09-27 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Run-Off-Road crashes cause a large proportion of fatalities and serious injuries to the vehicle occupants. In this study, fatal crashes from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System for passenger vehicles (passenger cars and LTVs) during the period 1991 to 2007 wre used to identify the roadway- (e.g., rural/urban nature and curve existence), driver- (e.g., age, gender, drowsy, and alcohol use), environmental- (e.g., weather, lighting condition), and vehicle-related factors (e.g., speeding) associated with the fatal single vehicle run-off-road crashes.

Book Run Off Road Crashes

Download or read book Run Off Road Crashes written by Cejun Liu and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2011-07-31 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Run-off-road (ROR) crashes, which usually involve only a single vehicle, contribute to a large portion of fatalities and serious injuries to motor vehicle occupants. In this study, the National Motor Vehicle Crash Causation Survey (NMVCCS) data collected at crash scenes between 2005 and 2007 is used to identify the ROR critical pre-crash event, assess the critical reason for the ROR critical event, and examine associated factors present in the pre-crash phase of the ROR crash. The effect of antilock brake system (ABS) and electronic stability control (ESC) on ROR crashes is also evaluated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 2nd International Conference on Mathematical Statistics and Economic Analysis (MSEA 2023) was held virtually from 26-28 May 2023 in Nanjing, China. The conference was attended by researchers, teachers, students and engineers in the field of mathematical statistics and economic analysis. Through data statistics and analysis, we can quickly understand the pattern of economic development. This conference combines mathematical statistics and economic analysis, explores the relationship between the two, and provides a platform for experts and scholars in the fields of mathematical statistics and economic analysis to discuss related issues and exchange ideas. Therefore, we hope to create a forum for sharing research results and exploring future research directions, so that participants can learn about the latest research directions, contents and results of mathematical statistics and economic analysis; secondly, we hope that the conference can provide solutions to the major problems facing mathematical statistics and economic analysis, and create a space that encourages discussion and joint development of research, technological development and innovation.

Book Driving With Music  Cognitive Behavioural Implications

Download or read book Driving With Music Cognitive Behavioural Implications written by Warren Brodsky and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first full-length text on the subject, explores the everyday use of music listening while driving a car. It presents the relationship between cars and music in an effort to understand how music behaviour in the car can either enhance driver safety or place the driver at increased risk of accidents. A great deal of work has been done to investigate and reduce driver distraction and inattention, but this book is the first to focus on in-cabin aural backgrounds of music as a contributing factor to human error and traffic violations. Driving With Music begins by outlining the automobile, its relationship to society, and the juxtaposition of music with the automobile as a complete package. It then highlights concepts from the fields of music perception and cognition, and, within this framework, looks at the functional use of background music in our everyday lives. Driver music behaviours - both adaptive and maladaptive - are explored, with the focus on contradictions and ill-effects of in-car music listening. To conclude, implications, applications and countermeasures are suggested.
