DETERMINATION OF DEPENDENCE OF THE ROAD ACCIDENT TYPE ON THE SEGMENT OF ROUNDABOUT

Abstract

The paper identifies the relationship between different types of road accidents, their place of occurrence and the configuration of the roundabout. The analysis was based on 321 incidents at 19 roundabouts. It is proposed to make changes to the existing classification of the accidents, using as a criterion the division not by the participants of the accident, but by the nature of the accident. The division of roundabouts into segments to detail the location of the accident allows for the conclusion about the nature of the accident and the impact of the structure of the roundabout on safety.
