Road safety evaluation using traffic conflicts: Pilot comparison of micro-simulation and observation
Original language description
For local road safety evaluations traffic accident frequency has been traditionally used; however it has been also known that accident occurrence is statistically rare and thus their data collection is time consuming. To this end various other means havebeen investigated, including observation of traffic conflicts (near-accidents). Traffic conflict happens when two road users approach each other to such extent that, if no action is taken, a collision occurs. These surrogate measures may enable collection of larger samples and quicker safety assessment. There have been various traffic conflict techniques developed around the world, using different approaches to assessing the conflict types and severity levels. For example Czech traffic conflict technique uses assessment based on the severity of evasive manoeuvre assessed by observers on the site. However using evaluations by human observers has been criticized as subjective and potentially biased. Among others the use of microscopic tr
