Safety Data, Analysis, and Evaluation
TRB’s Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 1953 explores real-time traffic factors associated with sideswipe crashes on highways; a new approach for analyzing traffic accidents at hazardous road locations; the relationships between motor vehicle accidents and land use, population, employment, and economic activity; an in-vehicle data recorder to monitor and analyze driver behavior; a procedure for ranking the safety of intersections according to red-light crash frequency; factors that affect the severity of head-on crashes; and the effects of daylight savings time on the number of motor vehicle crashes that result in injury.
Individual TRR Journals, which are published on an irregular basis throughout the year, consist of collections of peer-reviewed papers on specific transportation subject areas and modes. Abstracts of papers that make up this TRR are available through TRB's Publication Index.
TRR Journals may also be purchased on an annual subscription basis. Each year, TRB publishes approximately 45 volumes of the TRR Journal, containing more than 800 papers grouped by subject.
