Examining pedestrian-injury severity using alternative disaggregate models

Author

Listed:
  • Abay, Kibrom A.

Abstract

This paper investigates the injury severity of pedestrians considering detailed road user characteristics and alternative model specification using a high-quality Danish road accident data. Such detailed and alternative modeling approach helps to assess the sensitivity of empirical inferences to the choice of these models.
