Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this study was to determine the nature and extent of urban freeway accidents involving trucks, over 10,000 lb gross vehicle weight, and their consequences as a function of vehicle type and traffic and roadway characteristics. The study was limited to urban freeways and expressways with large total volumes (minimum 100,000 average daily traffic) and a significant percentage of large truck traffic (minimum 5%). The primary tasks involved a review of the literature, and the analysis of accident and operational data from selected urban freeway sites. A total of 2,221 verified truck accidents were included in the study occurring during 3.75 years on 46.5 miles of freeway. The study determined the characteristics of truck accidents, developed comparisons between truck and passenger vehicle accidents, and estimated the operational and economic consequences of truck accidents. An estimate of the total annual cost of urban freeway accidents was determined to be 634,000 dollars per freeway mile. Applying this estimate to the total 2,497 Interstate and freeway miles, with volumes greater than 100,000 vehicles per day, that exist nationwide results in a nationwide annual cost of 1.6 billion dollars due to truck accidents on urban freeways.

This book was released on 1993-05-31 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume brings together leaders from industry and government, as well as leading scholars from economics, law, engineering, psychology, and sociology who have done research on the problems associated with the transportation of hazardous materials and wastes (hazmats) to produce a set of integrated insights and understandings of the problems associated with the transportations of hazmats. The papers in this volume, originally presented at Hazmat Transport '91: A National Conference on the Transportation of Hazardous Materials and Wastes, deal with issues associated with the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act of 1975 (HMTA), the original act passed to regulate the transportation of hazardous materials, and the Hazardous Materials Transportation Uniform Safety Act of 1990 (HMTUSA). The book begins by explaining some of the important aspects of HMTUSA and other recent legislation dealing with the transport of hazmats. The book then considers the important ways in which industry has been attempting to deal with the risks involved with the transportation of hazardous materials. Finally, the book includes discussions of the law and economics, regulation, and cost issues involved in this subject."--Publisher description.
