Unobserved Heterogeneity and Temporal Instability in the Analysis of Work-Zone Crash-Injury Severities
In the state of Florida, work zone related crashes and their resulting injury severities have been increasing recently, particularly over the 2015 to 2017 time period. In the current study, … [Read more...] about Unobserved Heterogeneity and Temporal Instability in the Analysis of Work-Zone Crash-Injury Severities
Analysis of Injury Severity of Rear-End Crashes in Work Zones: A Random Parameters Approach With Heterogeneity in Means and Variances
Rear-end crash is the predominant crash type in work zones. This study employs a random parameters logit approach with heterogeneity in means and variances to investigate factors affecting the injury … [Read more...] about Analysis of Injury Severity of Rear-End Crashes in Work Zones: A Random Parameters Approach With Heterogeneity in Means and Variances
Does Time of Day Matter at Highway Work Zone Crashes?
INTRODUCTION It is widely agreed that highway work zones pose significant threats to road users because driving conditions in work zones are quite different from the normal ones, particularly when … [Read more...] about Does Time of Day Matter at Highway Work Zone Crashes?
