Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to the field of road safety technologies, and in particular, to a method and system for evaluating road safety based on multi-dimensional influencing factors.


BACKGROUND

With the development of social economy, the car ownership is gradually increased, which not only causes the road congestion, but also gradually increases the incidence of road traffic accidents. To reduce the incidence of road accidents and improve road safety, a variety of road safety analysis models are provided in the related research fields. There are two levels of road safety analysis models, where one is a road safety analysis model at the macro level, and the other is a road safety analysis model at the micro level. However, whether in the research field or the patent field, no relevant research comprehensively considers the correlation between the road safety analysis models at the macro level and the micro level. To establish a road safety analysis model only from the perspective of one dimension causes some deviation to analysis results. In addition, motor vehicle annual average daily traffic is considered as effective safety risk exposure, which is of great significance for measuring influencing factors and accident generation mechanisms. However, relevant literatures all assume that influence of the safety risk exposure is constant. Essentially, the influence should be elastic. With the change of the motor vehicle annual average daily traffic, the influencing factors have similarities and differences.

Under a constraint condition, influence mechanisms of various influencing factors on road safety in different dimensions can be determined respectively. If a coefficient of an influencing factor is positively significant at a 95% confidence interval, it indicates that the influencing factor increases the incidence of accidents in traffic communities or roads; and if the coefficient of the influencing factor is negatively significant at the 95% confidence interval, it indicates that the influencing factor reduces the incidence of accidents in traffic communities or roads.


The experimental verification of the present invention is carried out under hypothetical data conditions. Taking an element N of the traffic community as an example, if β1>0 at the 95% confidence interval, it indicates that the population density of the traffic community is positively correlated with the incidence of road accidents, and greater population density indicates more accidents in the traffic community. If β1<0 at the 95% confidence interval, it indicates that the population density of the traffic community is negatively correlated with the incidence of road accidents, and greater population density indicates less accidents in the traffic community.

A person of ordinary skill in the art may make variations and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
