“…Equally significant are the rising costs in health services and the added burden on public finances. Scientist, police, investigators, road traffic accident reconstruction experts are trying to identify reasons of crashes involve pedestrians (Haleem et al, 2015;Liu and Tung, 2014;Shinar, 2012).…”

“…They suffer the most severe consequences in collisions with other road users because they cannot protect themselves against the speed and mass of the other party (Piatkowski et al, 2015). Collisions between pedestrians and bicyclists or motor vehicles are a major problem in countries that are becoming motorized, and in which there are high rates of walking and bicycling (Haleem et al, 2015). Pedestrians are commonly referred to as vulnerable road users because in collisions with motor vehicles the lack of a protective structure and differences in mass height and make their injury susceptibility.…”

Nearly 1.3 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287 deaths a day. In 2013 in European Union more than 22 % of all who died in road traffic crashes were pedestrians. The number of pedestrians killed on roads in the EU has decreased by only 11 %, compared to the total fatality decrease of 18 % from 2010 to 2013. Of all pedestrian fatalities, 69 % are killed inside urban areas. This paper reviews the literature concerning pedestrian-motor vehicle collision and road safety management according to pedestrian role in accident rise. Paper examine pedestrians safety in order to determine what kind of factors of transport infrastructure, vehicle technical parameters, pedestrian behaviour and road or street category have the influence on pedestrian and vehicle accidents and identify technical reasons of accidents rise. Pedestrians crossing, crossing selection, crossing design and waiting times present the pedestrian role in accident according to road situation. A review is conducted of information in the literature on the injury outcome of a pedestrian/vehicle collision for a given impact speed and the likely consequences of reducing the travelling speeds of vehicles in terms of the frequency and severity of pedestrian injuries. Technical information found gives the opportunity to improve accident reconstruction cases and technical parameters, also it let to identify road infrastructure problems and pedestrian behaviour in road.

“…Furthermore, complementary studies assessing risk of severe injury within this cohort have predictably demonstrated a positive correlation between impact speed and injury severity. (Stone and Broughton 2003;Haleem et al, 2015). When comparing a speed of 80 km/h to 32 km/h for example, risk of death increases 16 times amongst bicyclists involved in collisions with motor vehicles.…”

“…In the meantime, studies have been conducted to analyze the traffic accident data and to find out the cause of the accident in order to identify and prevent pedestrians' major accidents [1]- [3]. They identified the factors related to the accident and analyzed how these factors are distributed in the pedestrian accident area.…”

Abstract:The purpose of this study is to construct the spatial characteristics of pedestrians' accident points as learning materials and to develop a model for deep learning them and to predict the risk of similar areas. In order to construct learning materials for pedestrian accident points, the characteristics of geometric factors related to pedestrian accidents at the accident points were quantitatively analyzed through spatial analysis. As a result of the study, in the analysis of the deep learning pattern, the prediction results could be improved by changing the middle layer and adjusting the parameters. It is expected that this result will contribute to lowering the accident rate of pedestrians by preparing measures for high accident rate points by reviewing vulnerable traffic accident sites in the future.
