摘要: The purpose of this project was to develop a knowledge-base of 'near-miss' information from the TravTek Camera Car Study. The study investigated the current state of knowledge associated with near-miss analyses, including the Traffic Conflict Technique (TCT), to determine the degree to which the techniques would be useful for the analysis of in-vehicle-generated near-miss data, and the degree of compatibility that could be developed between vehicle-borne and static position-borne data collection techniques. No crashes resulted during the TravTek Camera Car Study. Therefore, the analysis is based on the 38 near-miss events and safety-related errors. Errors were classified across different levels of potential severity, environmental proximity. and whether they were directly caused by use of a navigational device. Specific measures of performance were also taken for defined error types such as land deviations and braking errors. The results of the analysis showed that there were considerably more safety-related errors in some of the conditions tested. Based on the results of the literature review and anlaysis of the TravTek near-miss database created as part of this project, the utilization of near-miss/traffic conflict data to improve the predictive capability of proactive safety evaluation appears to have merit.
