Promoting Road Safety

open access: yesTechnology and Culture, 2015
Where are they going, the couple on the motorbike that adorns this issue’s cover? Somewhere exciting, no doubt, and at great speed, with the wind billowing through the man’s scarf and the woman’s hair. They are young and free, making the most of 1960s Britain, about to roar past the viewer and off into the distance.

Response of Vulnerable Road Users to Visual Information from Autonomous Vehicles in Shared Spaces [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC), Auckland, New Zealand, 2019, pp. 3714-3719, 2020
Completely unmanned autonomous vehicles have been anticipated for a while. Initially, these are expected to drive only under certain conditions on some roads, and advanced functionality is required to cope with the ever-increasing challenges of safety.

Road Safety in Greece

open access: yesProcedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012
AbstractThe objective of this research is the analysis of road safety in Greece. For that purpose, the SUNflower footprint methodology is used, in which a country's road safety level is analysed hierarchically in relation to all components of the road safety system, from structure and culture elements, to the existing programmes and measures, to the ...

Making in-class skills training more effective: the scope for interactive videos to complement the delivery of practical pedestrian training

open access: yes, 2015
Skills and awareness of young pedestrians can be improved with on-street practical pedestrian training, often delivered in schools in the United Kingdom by local authorities with the intention of improving road safety. This training is often supplemented

Features of Low-Income and Middle-Income Countries making Road Safety more Challenging

open access: yesJournal of Road Safety, 2020
Low- and Middle-Income Countries suffer the large majority (93%) of global road crash deaths and face particular challenges in managing this crisis. This paper presents global data and trends revealing underlying features of the problem for LMICs.

ROAD SAFETY IN GREECE

open access: yesIATSS Research, 2007
This paper presents an analysis of road safety in Greece, a country which has the highest fatality rate of the original 15 European Union (EU) members. Additionally, Greece remains among the lowest in terms of roadway safety for the complete set of 27 member countries- a fact attributable, the author notes, to insufficient efforts from government ...

Road-safety-II: Opportunities and barriers for an enhanced road safety vision

open access: yesAccident Analysis & Prevention, 2022
Road safety research is largely focused on prediction and prevention of technical, human or organisational failures that may result in critical conflicts or crashes. Indicators of traffic risk aim to capture the passage to unsafe states. However, research in other industries has shown that it is meaningful to analyse safety along the whole spectrum of ...

Towards Better Driver Safety: Empowering Personal Navigation Technologies with Road Safety Awareness [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
Recent research has found that navigation systems usually assume that all roads are equally safe, directing drivers to dangerous routes, which led to catastrophic consequences. To address this problem, this paper aims to begin the process of adding road safety awareness to navigation systems. To do so, we first created a definition for road safety that

Road Surface Friction Prediction Using Long Short-Term Memory Neural Network Based on Historical Data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Intelligent Transportation Systems (2020): 1-12, 2019
Road surface friction significantly impacts traffic safety and mobility. A precise road surface friction prediction model can help to alleviate the influence of inclement road conditions on traffic safety, Level of Service, traffic mobility, fuel efficiency, and sustained economic productivity. Most related previous studies are laboratory-based methods

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...
