“…Most of the existing traffic safety analyses have been conducted based on macro-level ( 2 – 7 ) or micro-level ( 8 – 11 ) analysis units. Macro-level safety analysis quantitatively examines the relationships between traffic safety and regional characteristics, including roadway network, traffic, and socioeconomic characteristics, to provide policy-level solutions for safety improvement.…”

“…Most existing traffic safety analyses are based on macro-level (2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7) or micro-level (8)(9)(10)(11) analysis units. Macro-level safety analyses aim to assess the safety performance of different network patterns, and thereby provide insight into urban planning and administrative strategies.…”

With the increase in high-density road network construction in many urban areas, neither macro- nor micro-level safety analysis can fully explain the impact of network characteristics on safety. This study employed a meso-level analysis unit, which combines intersections with adjacent road segments, to investigate the safety impact of intersection spacing and network connection compatibility along 19 major arterials in Suzhou, China. Three main intersection spacing characteristics, the density of intersection spacing (DOIS), the standard deviation of intersection spacing (SDOIS), and the variation of intersection spacing (VOIS), were used to represent the interaction between arterials and other roads in the network. This study introduced the concept of hierarchical differences to quantitatively analyze the safety effects of connections between roads with different accessibility and mobility functions. To manage the hierarchical structure of the data (which has both within-arterial and between-arterial correlations), a two-level hierarchical negative binomial conditional autoregressive model was adopted to examine the safety effects of network characteristics at the meso level. The results showed the existence of unobserved heterogeneities among the selected arterials. The SDOIS and VOIS were found to have positive effects on crash frequency (more crashes on units with higher SDOIS and VOIS), while the DOIS was negatively associated with crash frequency. The meso units with moderately compatible network connections were found to have more crashes than those with compatible connections, while the units with the highest hierarchical differences had fewer crashes. The results from this study are expected to provide suggestions on potential safety hazard screening and crash prevention.

“…With urban growth and the progressive increase in the number of transport vehicles on roads, the expansion of motorization on roads generally offers many benefits but also some drawbacks and risks [14,15]. Every year, 20-50 million people suffer financial or physical damage as a result of road traffic accidents, which claim the lives of around 1.35 million people worldwide [16].…”

To achieve the elimination of the negative impacts of transport on road safety, the European Union is taking various measures resulting from its commitment to improve road safety. The main objective of this paper is to assess the impact of social legislation on road transport safety using real research and to identify the factors influencing the violation of the legislation depending on the type of transport carried out in domestic or international road freight transport. Answers from the respondents are used in the segmentation of truck drivers based on input data describing the factors influencing the violation of traffic rules. Two-step cluster analysis is a suitable method for the segmentation of truck drivers based on input data. These data are obtained through a questionnaire from a total of 472 Czech and Slovak truck drivers. The results show that the optimal number of types of truck drivers with different characteristics is four. All of the clusters are described and compared. The majority of truck drivers do not violate social legislation for several reasons, such as traffic accidents (almost 67%), complications in meeting the loading or unloading deadline (less than 88%), poorly planned transport routes (more than 90%) and driving home (almost 80%).

In order to achieve the elimination of the negative impacts of transport on road safety, the European Union is taking various measures resulting from its commitment to improve road safety. One of the instruments for achieving the objectives set is social legislation for the work of drivers in road freight and passenger transport. In line with the objective of improving the quality of working conditions for road transport drivers and road safety, the European Union applies Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 on the harmonisation of certain social legislation relating to road transport, which lays down rules on driving times, breaks and rest periods for drivers operating in road freight and passenger transport. The main objective of the paper is to assess the impact of social legislation on road transport safety by means of real research and to identify the factors influencing the violation of the legislation depending on the type of transports carried out in domestic or international road freight transport.
