Geospatial analysis of high-crash intersections and rural roads using naturalistic driving data : final report

Despite the fact that overall road safety continues to improve, intersections and rural roads persist as trouble areas or hotspots. Using a previously developed method, naturalistic driving data were identified through intersection and rural road hotspots and compared to naturalistic driving data through similar intersections and rural road locations, but with low crash counts. Few significant differences were found between driver behaviors in the low-crash and high-crash areas of study. For the few significant differences, there was not an apparent consistent pattern. -- Report website.
