Development of Innovative Safety Performance Indicators from Naturalistic Driving Data

How to obtain relevant road safety indicators from driving data collected on a vehicle fleet? This paper proposes an approach that aim to answer this question. After presenting the main technical and methodological issues linked to the continuous observation of a fleet of vehicles, the authors highlight different aspects of drivers’ unsafe behaviours and propose a method to compute several road safety indicators which can reflect this various aspects. This method is illustrated with speed related safety indicators. Methodological issues associated to this method are discussed. Finally, a list of indicators that cover a wide range of safety related unsafe behaviours is proposed in order to show how the proposed method can be used.
