New Road Crash Prediction Models Aim to Save Lives on Highways
Road crash prediction models help predict the number and severity of crashes on roads. Factors like driver behavior, road design, and vehicle features influence crash likelihood. Efforts to reduce crashes include safer roads, better vehicles, and improved post-crash care. Despite prevention efforts, traffic fatalities in the US increased by 7.2% in 2015. Various models are used to predict crashes and understand risk factors.
