Comparison of severity assessments based on Czech and Swedish traffic conflict techniques

Jiri Ambros (CDV) and Aliaksei Laureshyn (Lund University) - presented at 3rd NTSA Annual Scientific Seminar. Oslo (Norway), 6-7 May 2014. Traffic conflict technique (TCT) is a method for the systematic observation of conflicting traffic behaviour. Various TCTs have been developed around the world in order to be able to collect intermediate data for road safety analyses, study driving behaviour, etc. Conflict severity assessment is the focus of the paper. Various observed, measured or calculated parameters are used in TCTs. The Swedish TCT uses time and distance estimates, the Czech TCT assesses subjectively the severity of evasive manoeuvre. The latter may likely be more susceptible to subjective biases than the former technique, which has been deemedthe most mature. In order to test the applicability of the Czech TCT, its comparison with Swedish one is wanting. In order to fill this gap, short video footages of traffic conflicts were used. The severity of recorded conflicts was asse
