    Road safety engineering involves analyzing accidents to improve road design. Key aspects include: 1. Conducting accident studies to determine causes and identify accident-prone locations. 2. Preparing condition diagrams that depict road features and collision diagrams showing vehicle paths involved in accidents. 3. Collecting accident data through forms and police reports to analyze causes like road users, vehicles, and road/environmental conditions. 4. Using accident analysis to evaluate existing designs, support new designs, and measure improvements from safety countermeasures.

    Road Safety Engineering
    Accident
    An event that has occurred on a road involving vehicles or pedestrians resulting in either
    personal injury or damage to the property

    Accident studies
    The statical analysis of accident carried out periodically on a critical road stretch to arrive at the
    cause of accidents and to find a suitable measure to reduce it
    These critical stretch are marked as a “Blackspot” on a zone map and then studied in detail
    Road Safety Engineering
    Objectives of accident studies.
    • To Study the cause of accidents
    • To evaluate existing design
    • To support a proposed design
    • To carry out before and after studies to evaluate the improvement in
    the problem
    • To compute financial loss
    Road Safety Engineering
    Major Causes of accidents
    1. Road user
    2. Vehicle
    3. Road and its conditions
    4. Environmental Conditions
    Road Safety Engineering
    Various Causes of accidents
    1. Driver
    2. Pedestrian
    3. Passengers
    4. Vehicle defects
    5. Road condition
    6. Road design
    7. Weather
    8. Animals
    9. Other causes
    Road Safety Engineering
    Steps in accident studies
    i. Collection of accident data
    ii. Preparation of accident report
    iii. Preparation of Location file and location diagram
    iv. Application of above records for suggesting preventive measures
    Road Safety Engineering
    • Collection of accident data(Road Accident Form A1-A4 & IRC 53)
    1. General
    2. Location
    3. Details of the vehicle involved
    4. Nature of accident
    5. Road and traffic conditions
    6. Primary causes of accidents
    7. Accident cost
    Road Safety Engineering
    • FIR
    Road Safety Engineering
    • Preparation of accident report
    An accident report should be submitted to the police who would collect
    further details and take certain legal actions based on the severity of
    accident.
    An accident report should have all the above data and all the other
    details which will be helpful in further investigation of the accident
    • Location file and location diagram
    Location file is maintained to keep a record of number of accidents
    occurring in a location.
    These are done to locate the places with high accident intensities
    Road Safety Engineering
    Location file and location diagram
    Road Safety Engineering
    Condition Diagram
    • The condition diagram is a drawing of the accident location showing
    the important physical conditions drawn to scale
    • A Condition Diagram is generally drawn to scale showing roadway
    limits, curves, kerb lines, bridges, culverts, trees, obstruction to
    vision, signs, signals markings etc
    • These Condition Diagram are drawn using certain symbols each
    representing a different condition.
    • Condition Diagram also should indicate traffic control devices, road
    side amenities, presence of median, shoulder type, type of land use,
    location of potholes, ruts, ponding etc

    Collision Diagram
    • Collision Diagram is a drawing showing the approximate path of
    vehicles and pedestrians involved in the accident
    • Collision diagram is most important to compare the accident pattern
    before and after the remedial measures have been taken
    • They provide information on the type and number of accident
    including information such as time of day, climatic conditions,
    pavement conditions, cause of accidents
    Road Safety Engineering
    Collision Diagram
    Procedure to draw Collision Diagram
    1. Sketch the location which need not be to scale
    2. Show the path of each vehicle involved in the accident
    3. Place the north arrow for orientation
    4. Mention the type of collision , accident severity, time, day, date etc

    The purpose of drawing a collision diagram is to understand the cause,
    type, severity of accident at a location
    The outcome of these drawings is to rectify the causes of accidents and
    create suitable safety features
