For example, it was found that a 5 km/h “free speed” reduction for all vehicles would be expected to lower the number of metropolitan Adelaide casualty crashes by more than 15 per cent. The method also allows the effects of speed changes on casualty crashes to be assessed independently for local, collector, undivided arterial or divided arterial roads. | | Conference Name | Road Safety Research, Policing and Education Conference | | Conference Abbreviation | RSR | | Conference Location | Brisbane, Australia | | Conference Date | 26-28 November 2000 | | Page Range | 259-264 | | Page Count | 6 |
