Challenges and measures of defining road safety key performance indicators

Session

Architecture and Spatial Planning

Description

Road safety currently poses a particular challenge in terms of events and consequences in people. Initially, the number of events and consequences (number of accidents and fatal consequences from them) were used to determine the level of road safety, while over time the data of users, the location of the event and the vehicles involved have been expanded. Through road safety indicators 5 and 13 (European Commission Mobility and Transport Transport themes Clean transport, Urban transport SUMI) the level of road safety in urban areas is determined. All these data and this determination are presented for the events that occurred and analyzed. Road safety performance indicators measure the level of implementation of traffic measures and rules by road users (all forms of movement). For this purpose, in March of 2023, the Main Indicators of road safety performance (Baseline project) were published, where the main indicators are listed: (KPI 1) Speed of free circulation of passenger vehicles, (KPI 2) seat belt (and CRS)-percentage of correct use (drivers), (KPI 3a) Motorcycle helmets -percentage of use, (KPI 3b) Bicycle helmets -percentage of use, (KPI 4)Alcohol -Percentage below the BAC limit, (KPI 5) Distraction - percentage NOT using handheld devices, (KPI 6) Vehicle safety - assessment of newly registered passenger cars, (KPI 7) Road infrastructure - (some KPI definitions), (KPI 8) After-accident care - times of emergency response (95th percentile). For all these performance indicators, goals have been set which are claimed to be achieved within a certain period of time.
