| 摘要： | This report uses economic analyses and presents relevant information to help policymakers determine why pedestrian fatality rates in Florida exceed those in the rest of the country. Section II summarizes several federal and state laws and policies that have directly affected the Florida Department of Transportation's funding decisions on pedestrian safety measures. Section III briefly critiques and ultimately rejects the pedestrian exposure measure used in Mean Streets 2002, with an eye to preparing the reader for both the theoretical model of Section IV and the empirical analysis of Section V. Section IV set forth a theoretical model of public investment in pedestrian-safety capital, a model relating pedestrian fatalities to safety capital; risk factors such as climate, sunlight and age; pedestrian exposure; and the value of a statistical life. Section V using multivariate regression, we examine six factors that could plauisbly explain Florida's higher pedestrian fatality rate. Section VI presents and interprets tables containing data useful for explaining differences in pedestrian fatality rates. Section VII briefly discusses the implications of our findings and suggests possibilities for further research. |
