Road Safety Analysis from a Viewpoint of Influencing Factors

The article describes a developed factor tree that determine the risk of an accident. The proposed factor tree in addition to the categories “driver”, “automobile”, “road”, “environment” is also supplemented with factors of the categories “pedestrian” and “traffic flow”. In contrast to the accepted practice of analyzing road accidents enlarged throughout the Russian Federation by one factor, an analysis of the statistics of the average settlement in the context of several factors was carried out. As a method of analysis, the construction of frequencies polygons has been chosen. Patterns of accidents that occurred in 2017-2018 on the roads of Yelabuga in the context of the day of the week, time of day, type of vehicle, type of accident, driver experience and gender were identified.
