Safe mobility has a clear and transport link to transport sustainability, as fatalities and injuries resulting from people engaged with transport networks worldwide is an increasing public health concern relative to other health threats worldwide. This volume on Safe Mobility provides current state of the knowledge across a multitude of analytical and context specific transport safety areas. It includes a comprehensive set of chapters authored by many of the world's leading experts in specific areas of safe mobility. The book brings together both behavioural and engineering aspects of safety mobility, providing a comprehensive view of the area.

Recenzijos

Civil engineers, transportation researchers, and political scientists review what is currently known about global road safety in both academic and practical realms. They cover challenges and solutions in driver behavior, transport networks, and vulnerable road users; methods for understanding and predicting safety performance; and methods for evaluating safety impacts of countermeasures. Among their topics are driver education and licensing, rural and urban intersections, real-time traffic safety and operation, time-series regression models for analyzing transport safety data, and meta-analytic methods. -- Annotation ©2018 * (protoview.com) *
