TRAUTENFELS-STUDIE: DIAGNOSE VAN DE VERKEERSONVEILIGHEID MET BEHULP VAN DE NEDERLANDSE CONFLICTOBSERVATIETECHNIEK DOCTOR
Under auspices of the ICTCT (International Committee on Traffic Conflicts Techniques) an international calibration study was conducted at a signalized rural intersection at Trautenfels, Austria. At the same time six teams recorded traffic conflicts. On behalf of both sponsors of this study (BASt, West Germany and KFV, Austria) a traffic-hazard diagnosis was carried out on the basis of conflicts (scored by the Dutch team) and limited accident figures. Several recommendations for improving the intersection were suggested.
