Popis: |
Road traffic injuries are a major health issue worldwide. There are many factors that canaffect the levels of road traffic collisions which in turn increase the levels of people killed orseriously injured. When road traffic collisions occur, observed facts are recorded in relationto the incident. These facts are recorded as variable observations, and for this study,variables and indicators are defined almost equivalently. There can be hundreds of differentindicators for the various collisions, as different countries face different road situations. Thismakes it difficult to perform a road safety assessment, which can be applied globally. Thegoal of this study is to select the most appropriate indicators and create a compositeindicator as a function of these indicators, which can be used as summary values, allowingease of comparisons between the countries/regions that have undergone a road safetyassessment. The composite indicator will then be used to assess the current situation inNorthern Ireland and provide scores for ranking policing in terms of overall road safety ontheir road networks. |
