Development of Crash Modification Factors for DOT Funded Selective Enforcement
项目名称: Development of Crash Modification Factors for DOT Funded Selective Enforcement
摘要: This research proposes to evaluate the effectiveness of the selective enforcement campaigns in reducing all crashes with a focus on the impact of these campaigns on reducing serious injury/fatal crashes. It is recognized in the literature that enforcement activities have both a temporal and spatial impact on driver behavior, often called the halo effect. The halo effect implies that driver behavior (speeding) is reduced for a time and/or distance from a known enforcement point. This research will examine an officer's patrol pattern during the selective enforcement period to evaluate the effectiveness. This research will focus on the return on investment in terms of crash reductions and reductions in crash severity for selective enforcement. This research will examine the halo effect and the degree to which the spatial and temporal impact crashes and crash severity. This research will develop Crash Modification Factors (CMF) for selective enforcement related to driving under the influence (DUI) and Speeding crashes. The crash modifications factors will be developed, as data supports, to a sufficient depth to submit to the Crash Modification Factor (CMF) Clearinghouse.
