Summary | Road traffic fatalities and injuries have caused substantial social costs for almost every country in the world, and the Republic of China is among one of which. Although many governments worldwide have devoted abundant resources in improving traffic safety in recent years, there are still many challenges. Among all of which, the selection of appropriate countermeasures and the evaluation of their effectiveness are most critical as they involve resource allocation and project implementation. As such, to identify keys to success in Taiwan, this project seeks to undertake a study to review and survey effective countermeasures that are currently implemented in benchmarking countries, as well as their corresponding safety performance measures. The focuses of this project are on countermeasures that aim to improve (1) elder driver safety, (2) moped safety, and (3) bus and coach safety. Two demonstration projects will be conducted to develop and test the applicability of the countermeasures identified. |
