EVALUATION OF URBAN UNCONTROLLED INTERSECTION ACCIDENTS EFFECTING FACTORS
Abstract :
Theory and models used for effective measures against traffic accidents, are main sources. Data must be in high quality and sufficient quantity in intersection safety reseaches and it is possible with making depth research. Until now, in no uncontrolled intersection study has been examined together with all effecting factors. Therefore, when creating accident prediction model sor performing intersection safety analysis, there is always a restriction for the effecting parameters. In this study, accident affecting factors except the human factor, road and environmental factors, especially the geometric features of intersections have been examined for urban uncontrolled intersections. The study aims to remendy deficiencies related to urban uncontrolled intersection safety analysis and it is thought the results could shed light on the values of intersection safety researches.
