摘要

摘要分心驾驶是影响交通安全的重要因素。虽然以前的研究一直致力于探索驾驶员分心对碰撞风险的影响,但很少有研究能够定量分析驾驶员分心对碰撞伤害结果的影响。因此,本研究旨在检验分心驾驶对有过错和无过错司机伤害严重程度的影响。采用倾向得分匹配法平衡分心驾驶和正常驾驶数据集之间的协变量,避免混杂因素可能带来的影响。计算平均治疗效果以量化分心对特定损伤严重程度的影响。结果表明:1)在限速较高、非高峰时段、十字路口、阳光充足、多云天气、年轻驾驶员和女性驾驶员以及重型车辆等场景下,驾驶员更容易分心;2)对于有过错的驾驶员,分心似乎增加了致命和伤害事故的发生概率;3)对于无过错驾驶人来说,注意力分散会导致伤害事故的可能性增加。本研究证实了驾驶员分心对碰撞伤害严重程度的显著因果关系,并提出了减少驾驶员分心驾驶的对策。

Examining the causal effects of distracted driving on crash injury severities
Abstract Distracted driving is a critical factor affecting traffic safety. Although previous studies have been devoted to exploring the effects of driver distraction on crash risks, few of them are available to quantitatively analyze the impacts on crash injury outcomes. Thus, the study aims to examine the effects of distracted driving on injury severities for both at-fault and not-at-fault drivers. Propensity score matching method is adopted to balance the covariates between the data sets of distracting and normal driving, so as to avoid the potential effects caused by confounding factors. Average treatment effect is calculated to quantify the impacts of distraction on specific injury severity levels. The results indicate that 1) drivers are inclined to be distracted in the scenarios of roadways with higher speed limits, non-peak hours, intersection area, sunlight, cloudy weather, young and female drivers, and heavy vehicles; 2) for the at-fault drivers, the distraction appears to increase the occurrence probabilities of both fatal and injury crashes; and 3) as for the not-at-fault drivers, the distraction can lead to the increase of possible injury crashes. The study confirms the significant causal effects of driver distraction on crash injury severities and serves to propose the countermeasures to reduce the distracted driving.
