Abstract
In the present era, the number of accidents are increasing in number and one of the reason to control with the help of the accident prone devices. The present study, deals with the review of the various accident prone areas, the reason behind the accident i.e. the speed, the vehicle issue, the irregularity and the driving of the drivers. The road accidents can cause both the economically as well as health destruction. The objective of the present paper is to explore the relationship between the occurred accidents and the intersection areas. The absolute difference will basically give the motion the frame. Hence the accident severity value has been included to remark the accident prone location. The devices are used for the study on the accident prone devices for the control of the road accidents. Hence it is reviewed that the future implementation is a lot more important for the control and measure of the road accidents. Keywords: Accident Prone, Accident severity, Accident prone location, intersecting areas
Introduction
Road transportation is one of the best benefits provided to everyone by the facilitation of the movement of goods and individual. The road transportation help the individual to enable the unlimited accesses of economic markets, jobs, education and health care which conclusively provide the direct as well as indirect influence on health of the population of country.
In today’s era of time day by day there is increase in the road accidents because of the several issues considered. In this case, traffic management is one of the serious issue for the society as well as their economy. Road traffic accidents are critical in urban and non-urban areas but it is interesting to assess the accident in urban areas rather than non-urban areas because the number of accidents in the urban areas are more. The accidents can be studied with the help of the two different approaches i.e. the prevention and the treatment. The treatment includes the accident statistics to evaluate High Crash Road Segments. Whereas in the prevention approach one can include the effective factors and indices on the occurrence of accident so as to recognize the segments which are very significantly prone towards the accident.
