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
Rear End Crashes
Trimble and Purdue University Collaborate to Improve Highway Work Zone Safety
ARTBA members Trimble and Purdue University are partnering to develop a slowdown alert service that notifies commercial drivers to help reduce rear-end crashes, particularly in highway work zones. The … [Read more...] about Trimble and Purdue University Collaborate to Improve Highway Work Zone Safety
