Abstract :

This paper presents an analysis of the fatal crashes thatinvolved public transport buses in Bangalore, India. The study suggests that low floorbuses with mechanical doors and segregated pedestrian and bicycle lanes can have amajor impact on reducing fatal crashes of bicycles and pedestrians involving buses.And another research paper based on the aim of facilitating a comparative functional analysis of driving assistance systemsand infrastructure measures for traffic safety, this paper studies the underlying concepts of safe road design, and derives a general set of traffic safety principles. Road categorisation isstudied as an important parameter for both road design and route selection that is optimised from a traffic safety perspective and an extended road categorisation is proposed. Finally a systematic overview of infrastructure measures is provided, as a basis for a future comparative functional analysis.
