Currently, there are quite a lot of incorrect procedures and mistakes that occur in the forensic area, which lacks analytical approaches toward solving the causes of accidents using s–t diagrams (distance–time diagrams) combined with the software simulation applications. When analyzing accidents, the correct information is of key importance. The aim of this article is to define a new specific technical and analytical approach toward handling expert’s reports on traffic accidents in road transport at intersections, with respect to the traffic lights. A simulation program application is used as a progressive means of accident evaluation. This procedure must become a standard in the methods of modern traffic accident analysis. The application of this methodology with simulation tools for accident reconstruction enables one to perform a very precise analysis of traffic accidents. Mutual space and time relationships of vehicles’ movements have been evaluated here, depending upon the intersection signal plan. To demonstrate the methodology, a real case is used here, reconstructed by means of the complex analytical simulation software PC-Crash. A procedure processed by these means can be beneficial for forensic traffic accident analysis.

Road safety is the main problem in developing countries. Every year, millions of people die in road traffic accidents, resulting in huge losses of humankind and the economy. This study focuses on the road traffic accident analysis and identification of black spots on the Lahore-Islamabad Highway M-2. Official data of road traffic accidents were collected from National Highway and Highway Police (NH & MP) Pakistan. The data was digitized on MS Excel and Origin Pro. The accident Point weightage (APW) method was employed to identify the black spots and rank of the top ten black spots. The analysis shows that the trend of road traffic accidents on M-2 was characterized by a high rate of fatal accidents of 35.3%. Human errors account for 66.8% as the major contributing factors in road traffic accidents, while vehicle errors (25.6%) and environmental factors (7.6%) were secondary and tertiary contributing factors. The main causes of road traffic accidents were the dozing on the wheel (27.9%), the careless driving (24.6%), tyre burst (11.7%), and the brakes failure (7.4%). Kallar Kahar (Salt Range) was identified as a black spot (223 km, 224 km, 225 km, 229 km, and 234 km) due to vehicle brake failure. The human error was a major contributory factor in road traffic accidents, therefore public awareness campaign on road safety is inevitable and use of the dozen alarm to overcome dozing on the wheel. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2020-03091629 Full Text: PDF

Setya Kisma Usaha (SKU) di Dusun Telentam, Untuk mengetahui kendala yang dihadapi pemerintah desaa dalam mengimplementasikan CSR untuk pembangunan pasar Dusun Telentam. Apa dampak bagi masyarakat dengan adanya CSR (Corporate Social Responsbiliti) yang dikeluarkan oleh PT. Setya Kisma Usaha (SKU). Adapun metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif yang bersifat deskriptif. Lalu lintas dan angkutan jalan memiliki peranan yang penting dalam mendukung pembangunan dan integrasi nasional sebagai bagian dari upaya memajukan kesejahteraan umum sebagaimana diamanatkan oleh Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945. Salah satu penyebab tingginya tingkat kecelakan lalu lintas sendiri terjadi adalah kurangnya kesadaran masyarakat dalam hal ini pengemudi kendaraan dalam berkendara, misalnya tidak memperhatikan dan menaati peraturan lalu lintas yang sudah ada, tidak memiliki kesiapan mental pada saat mengemudi atau mengemudi dalam kondisi kelelahan, berada dalam pengaruh minuman keras, atau obat-obat terlarang. Kondisi ketidaksiapan pengemudi dalam berkendara memungkinkan terjadinya kecelakaan yang dapat membahayakan keselamatan pengguna jalan raya lainnya. Lengah, mengantuk, kurang terampil, tidak menjaga jarak, melaju terlalu cepat. Selain penyebab penyebab kecelakaan lalu lintas yang telah diuraikan di atas. Pelanggaran lalu lintas mayoritas berupa pelanggaran rambu-rambu lalu lintas dan lampu lalu lintas, seperti larangan berhenti dan parkir di tempat-tempat tertentu, menerobos lampu merah dan lain-lain.

The underreporting scenario is claimed to be the source of the extra zeros in traffic accident data. This leads to a latter problem in which the fitted statistical model may not be able to produce correct and reliable estimates. Understanding the root of problem as to what is the main cause of the underreporting scenario is essential to assist on the decision making process in traffic accident analysis. In this study, 200 Malaysian drivers were interviewed on their sentiments towards this issue. Their opinions on the causes of underreporting scenario are investigated then assessed using text analyses. First, the Latent Dirichlet Allocation text modelling is employed to find the underlying themes in the reasons of not reporting a traffic accident. Then, the polarity of the topics is measured using a lexicon based sentiment analysis. Results showed that majority Malaysian drivers (80.5%) consider that reporting a minor or non-fatality accident is not important and can be neglected. The decision is due to the fact that of complicated and time consuming reporting process. The drivers are also asked on their opinion after the consequences of underreporting are informed to them. The polarity of their answers shifted to more positive in which 71% drivers will report an accident that occur in the future.

The goal of the research is to determine how compensation affects the safety behavior of truck drivers and consequently the frequency of traffic accidents. For this purpose, a survey was conducted on a sample of 220 truck drivers in international road transport in the EU, where the results of the Structural Equation Model (SEM) show that in the current state of the transport sector, financial and non-financial incentives have a positive impact on the work and safety behavior of drivers. Financial incentives also have an impact on drivers’ increased perception of their driving ability, while moving violations continue to have a major impact on the number of accidents. The proposed improvements enable decision-makers at the highest level to adopt legal solutions to help manage the issues that have been affecting the industry from a work, social and safety point of view for the past several years. The results of the research therefore represent an important guideline for improvements to the legislature as well as in the systematization of truck driver compensation within companies.
