Improvement of Road Traffic Safety on the Basis of Forecasting a Potential Danger in Places of Conflict Situations

Dzianis Kapski, Ivan Leonovich

Abstract


The paper gives the results of perfecting of the method for forecasting accident rate susceptibility on the controlled crossroads of potential danger. The program allowing to reduce the labour expenditures in forecasting the accident rate probability is developed. Some recommendations for reducing the accident rate probability are worked out. Also recommendations for the road traffic safety improvement at the conflict objects (pedestrian crossings and crossroads) are given. Measures aimed to the improvement of traffic safety at the controlled crossroads are singled out.


Keywords:
accident rate probability; methods of forecasting; potential danger; actions for reducing the accident rate probability
