主讲内容简介
Transportation safety management (TSM) has provided diverse reactive and proactive means to prevent traffic fatalities and severe injuries on public roads. In this seminar, three of the TSM strategies are introduced: transportation safety planning, policies, and emergency medical services. The transportation safety planning aims at incorporating macroscopic safety into mid- to long-term planning process. Traffic safety in the safety planning is considered at macroscopic level and identifies the relationship between traffic crashes and socio-demographic characteristics. Subsequently, traffic safety in the future is predicted and provides proactive mechanisms to alleviate safety problems. Policies have been long-term countermeasures to improve traffic safety. They include but not limited to safety education, mandatory seat belt use, cell-phone use ban, motorcycle helmet law, etc. In this seminar, the recent investigation of the effects of motorcycle helmet law is explained as an example. Last but not least, the emergency medical services play important roles to save lives and minimize serious injuries from traffic crashes. The factors affecting crash reporting time and ambulance arrival time were explained. In addition, the effects of crash reporting and ambulance arrival durations on fatalities are described.
