Project R-6178

Title

InDeV - In-Depth understanding of accident causation for Vulnerable road users (Research)

Abstract

The main objective is to develop a user-oriented tool for in-depth analysis of accident causation for Vulnerable Road Users (VRU) based on a combined use of registered accidents, in-depth accident investigations, surrogate safety indicators and naturalistic driving behavioural data. The tool will help to link accident causation factors to VRU's accident risk, provide a solid basis for developing preventive countermeasures and a better input for socio-economic cost calculations considering VRU's accidents.
