Train Accidents at Level Crossings in Indonesia – A Preliminary Study
AHFE International, 2022Accidents involving passenger trains in Indonesia are still prevalent. Accidents at level crossings, in particular, have not been declining. In 2013, for example, a major accident at a level crossing occurred that resulted in a number of fatalities and significant financial implications.

Marginal costs for railway level crossing accidents in Sweden
Transport Policy, 2019Abstract The purpose of the present study is to estimate accident risks and marginal costs for railway level crossings in Sweden. The marginal effect of train traffic on the accident risk is used to derive the marginal cost per train passage that is due to level crossing accidents.

Criminal Responsibility in Train Accidents at Level Crossings in Indonesia
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MULTIDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS, 2023The accident involving the 112 Brantas train bound for Pasar Senen-Blitar with a tronton truck on Jalan Madukoro, Semarang City, Central Java, left grief. Police officials have not been able to confirm who is guilty and can be held criminally responsible for the accident.

Accident Risk Analysis and Model Applications of Railway Level Crossings
2008 11th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems, 2008In order to reduce property loss and casualties from level crossing accidents, it is crucial to develop effective accident prediction models that are capable of providing effective information of accident frequency and severity given a vector of covariates.

Human factors in level crossing accidents
Accident Analysis & Prevention, 1978Eighty percent of the fatalities at road-rail crossings in Victoria between 1969 and 1974 occurred either at crossings protected by flashing lights in major urban areas, or at "open" crossings (i.e. protected only by signs and with no form of active device) in rural areas.

A CROSS‐LEVEL INVESTIGATION OF FACTORS INFLUENCING UNSAFE BEHAVIORS AND ACCIDENTS
Personnel Psychology, 1996Several recent reviews of industrial accidents have given increased attention to the role of organizational factors as antecedents to the accident sequence. In the current study, three group‐level factors (i.e., group process, safety climate, and intentions to approach other team members engaged in unsafe acts) and one individual‐level factor (i.e ...

Human Factors Issues of Accidents at Passively Controlled Rural Level Crossings
Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2014Collisions between road vehicles and trains at passively controlled level crossings, where no indication is given to drivers of the presence (or absence) of an approaching train, raise important human factors safety concerns. A database search of Canadian level crossing crash data for the 10-year period between 2003 and 2012 and a targeted review of ...

Risk analysis of level crossing accidents based on systems control for safety
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part O: Journal of Risk and Reliability, 2008Train protection systems in Japan such as signalling systems and level crossing protection systems have been mostly developed by the improvement of individual subsystems in their performance as well as specific post-accident measures to prevent similar accidents from happening again.

Human risk factors leading to level crossing accidents
2022Background: Quantitative estimates of effects of road/rail safety measures are often needed, but experimental or naturalistic data required is typically challenging to collect. The objective of this paper was to show how in-depth accident data could be used in estimating quantitative safety effects.
