A method for assessing the influence of automated traffic enforcement system parameters on traffic safety

Traffic safety is a characteristic feature of road transport systems. It is regarded as a difficult challenge which requires a system approach to the management of the country's road traffic system. Variability of the street and road network structure and its technical condition over time requires considering such functional features as complexity of the hierarchical structure of road transport systems and technologies exploited in them. The research identifies the factors which affect the functioning of automated traffic enforcement facilities and reviews issues of assessing their parameters affecting traffic safety in the Russian Federation. Therefore, groups of factors which affect the functioning of automated traffic enforcement facilities are identified and research stages are developed. Based on the data obtained, a mechanism for quantitative assessment of the functional efficiency of automated traffic enforcement systems is suggested to ensure traffic safety and management decision-making regarding reduction of the number of accidents in the street and road network. The obtained results related to the influence of automated traffic enforcement system parameters on traffic safety allowed revealing the relationship between those indicators and suggesting measures to improve traffic safety using automated traffic enforcement systems.
