Usage of Video Analysis of Traffic Conflicts for the Evaluation of Inappropriately Designed Building Elements on Intersections

Original language description

Human society is constantly evolving in all areas. The transport is no exception - especially development of road transport is considerable and visible on all levels. However, it is necessary to look for tools that can harmonize economic and social progress with the full preservation of the environment for future generations. The so-called sustainable development of road transport is also closely related to the issue of creating safe transport infrastructure. For example, roads must be in compliance with technical rules on one hand and on the other one they have to be clearly understandable for all road participants (drivers, pedestrians, etc.). Unfortunately, even if the designer of transport construction meets the technical requirements, the result is a dangerous place where very frequently the accidents or traffic conflicts take place. There exist statistics of accidents, but on the contrary, there are not any statistics of traffic conflicts. And simply monitoring the traffic conflicts can lead to early detection of problematic places in road infrastructure and thus increasing the safety in the road traffic. There are many methods used for monitoring traffic conflicts. The method used in the Czech Republic is described in the submitted paper. The original method, which monitored mainly and only the behaviour of drivers and their mistakes, was innovated, so that it could be used also for evaluation of inappropriately designed building elements of road constructions. Therefore, the paper deals with the description of so-called Innovated Video Analysis of Traffic Conflicts (IVATC) and with the usage of this method for one particular example of intersection, where larger vehicles (buses, trucks, etc.) had problems with passing through it. It points out to the fact that even a relatively small change can lead to the increase of the road safety.
