Roundabout Safety: Econometric and Machine Learning Models and Applications

Creator:

Zubaidi, Hamsa AN

Abstract:

The rapid growth in the number of roundabouts raises some significant research challenges, especially around safety performance and evaluation in the U.S. Despite the safety advantages that roundabout geometric design brings, crashes still occur. While operationally roundabouts are good at preventing severe crashes, they may lead to more less severe...

Modeling Unobserved Heterogeneity and the Injury Severities of Truck Drivers in Run-Off-Road (ROR) Crashes: Econometric Methods and Applications

Creator:

Al-Bdairi, Nabeel Saleem Saad

Recent statistics regarding large truck crashes reveal that fatality rates of large trucks per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and fatality rates per 1,000 registered vehicles are higher than those for passenger vehicles. These statistics underscore the need for greater efforts by safety professionals to help mitigate the impacts...
