Body-pillar vision obstructions and lane-change crashes.
INTRODUCTION This exploratory study investigated the relationship between vision obstructions from body pillars and lane-change crashes. METHODS The vision obstructions were quantified by measuring, from the driver's perspective, the horizontal angular sizes and locations of the driver-side A-, B-, and C-pillars. The sample consisted of 21 vehicle models, including 13 passenger cars, 6 SUVs, ...
متن کاملInfluence of visibility out of the vehicle cabin on lane-change crashes.
The influence of lateral visibility from the vehicle cabin on safety was evaluated by examining the differences in lane-change crashes of four-door and two-door body styles of the same vehicle models. These two vehicle styles were used because B-pillars (the pillars between the front and rear seats) on four-door models are farther forward, and thus nearer the fore-aft position of the driver. (F...
متن کاملDifferences in causality factors for single and multi-vehicle crashes on two-lane roads.
Past research has found a non-linear relationship between traffic intensity or level of service (LOS) and highway crash rates. This paper investigates this relationship further by including the effects of site characteristics and estimating Poisson regression models for predicting single and multi-vehicle crashes separately. Analysis focuses on rural two-lane highways, with hourly LOS, traffic ...
متن کاملFactors affecting the severity of motor vehicle traffic crashes involving young drivers in Ontario.
OBJECTIVES To assess the factors affecting the severity of motor vehicles traffic crashes involving young drivers in Ontario. POPULATION Ontario young drivers, aged 16 to 20, involved in traffic crashes resulting in injury, between 1 January 1988 and 31 December 1993, on public roads in Ontario. METHODS Population based case-control study. Cases were fatal injury, major injury, and minor in...
متن کاملComparison of Severity Affecting Factors between Young and Older Drivers Involved in Single Vehicle Crashes
Single vehicle crashes contribute to a significant amount of fatalities in the United States. At the same time, fatality crash involvement rates of young and older drivers are well above the average and both groups are identified as critical groups when it comes to highway safety. Therefore, the study described in this paper developed separate models to predict crash severity of single vehicle ...
