| 摘要： | This report summarizes a study that seeks to identify the factors leading to the high crash rate experienced on Louisiana highways. Factors were identified by comparing statistics from the Louisiana Crash Database with those from peer states using the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS) database and to the nation as a whole using the General Estimates System (GES) database. Peer states for Louisiana are Alabama, Arkansas, Colorado, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Tennessee. A list of 23 problem areas were identified and were then further investigated to try and identify root causes. The root causes were suggested as including high alcohol-impaired driving, high crash rates among young drivers, low seatbelt usage, an elevated use of improper driver licenses, speeding, and inadequate adherence to traffic control. Countermeasures were identified to address some of the main problem areas and prioritized on their cost, need, and performance. |
