摘要: Linked Illinois state accident and roadway data files were used to explore the nature and importance of vehicle rollovers in "ran-off-road" crashes. Rollovers are known to be a major roadside safety problem--the Illinois data examined in this study indicate that rollovers are involved in one-half of rural roadside crash driver fatalities. The risks of rollover in ran-off-road crashes are compared by land use, road type, and object struck. Side slopes and ditches were found to be the dominant vehicle tripping mechanism involved in rollovers. The findings support the need for closer attention to rollover risks on side slopes and ditches. In particular, the risk of rollover on specific slope and ditch configurations needs to be defined.
