Book Description
TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Synthesis 295: Statistical Methods in Highway Safety Analysis focus on the type of safety analysis required to support traditional engineering functions, such as the identification of hazardous locations and the development and evaluation of countermeasures. Analyses related specifically to driver and vehicle safety are not covered, but some statistical methods used in these areas are of relevance and are summarized where appropriate.

Book Description
"TRB's Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2279 consists of 15 papers that explore rule-based forecasting of traffic flow; household automobile and motorcycle ownership; path-based algorithms; effects of gasoline price and miles traveled on fatal crashes; quantile effects of causal factors on crash distributions; statistical test for 85th and 15th percentile speeds; and nonconforming behavior of pedestrians at urban intersections. This issue of the TRR also examines crash modification factors; Highway Safety Manual calibration factors; calibration of the Highway Safety Manual safety performance function; assessing international transferability of the Highway Safety Manual crash prediction algorithm; the safety and effectiveness of composite shoulders on rural two-lane highways; crash modification factors for changes to left-turn phasing; relationship between freeway flow parameters and safety; and horizontal curves, signs, and safety.

Book Description
The Federal Highway Administration Development of Crash Modification Factors (DCMF) Program was established in 2012 to address highway safety research needs for evaluating new and innovative safety strategies (improvements) by developing reliable quantitative estimates of their effectiveness in reducing crashes. A goal of the DCMF is to advance highway safety and related research by establishing a sound foundation for the development of highway transportation specific statistical methodologies in cooperation with the American Statistical Association and other statistician communities. In pursuit of that goal, a two-day Technical Experts meeting brought together researchers from the road safety, statistics, and other statistics-related fields such as epidemiology, biostatistics, and agent based modeling that have methodologies relevant to highway safety research applications. The meeting resulted in guidance and materials that supported the development of this white paper, which identifies and discusses opportunities for advancing methodologies to estimate crash modification factors and safety performance functions. The paper outlines considerations and future steps to encourage researchers to explore these techniques in their research.
