Traffic Collision

Road safety analysis is typically undertaken using traffic collision data. However, the collision data often suffer from quality and reliability problems. These problems can inhibit the ability of road safety engineers to evaluate and analyze road safety performance. An alternate source of data that characterize the events of a traffic collision is the records that become available from an auto insurance claim. In settling an auto insurance claim, a claim adjuster must make an assessment and determination of the circumstances of the event, recording important contributing factors that led to the crash occurrence. As such, there is an opportunity to access and use the claims data in road safety engineering analysis. This paper presents the results of an initial attempt to use auto insurance claims records in road safety evaluation by developing and applying a claim prediction model. The prediction model will provide an estimate of the number of auto insurance claims that can be expected at signalized intersections in the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada. A discussion of the usefulness and application of the claim prediction model will be provided together with a recommendation on how the claims data could be utilized in the future.Key words: road safety improvement programs, auto insurance claims, road safety analysis, prediction models.
