Accident Modification Factors for Traffic Engineering and ITS Improvements
This report presents the findings of a research project to develop accident modification factors (AMFs) for traffic engineering and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) improvements. AMFs are a tool for quickly estimating the impact of safety improvements. The report will be of particular interest to safety practitioners responsible for programming and implementing highway safety improvements.
