Abstract

A total of 523 accident cases during 2018–2021 in China were studied in terms of accident year, region, road section, and time to reduce the probability of expressways mobile hazardous source transportation accidents. The characteristics and causes of accidents of moving hazardous sources on expressways are analyzed, and preventive measures are put forward. The results indicated that the number of expressways mobile hazardous source transportation accidents fluctuated less in the past four years. Provinces with a higher degree of industrialization are more prone to accidents, with 80.02% of accidents occurring on normal road sections. Summer is the high accident season and accidents are prone to occur at 7:00 and 8:00 every day. External factors cause 47.99% of accidents, liquid class mobile hazards quickly cause accidents, leakage accidents account for the heaviest proportion, and explosive accidents have the highest chance of causing secondary accidents. In order to reduce the probability of accidents, a comprehensive management framework suitable for the mobile hazard sources of expressways is proposed.
