Skidding Accidents: Wet-Weather Accident Experience, Human Factors, and Legal Aspects
The 10 papers deal with the following areas: Skidding accidents, friction numbers, and the legal aspects involved report of the PIARC technical committee on slipperiness and evenness; traffic accidents and road surface skidding resistance; the location and treatment of urban skidding hazard sites; prediction of wet surface intersection accidents from weather and skid test data; human factors in skidding--causation and prevention; legal implications of regulations aimed at reducing wet-weather skidding accidents of highways; methodology for establishing frictional requirements; a benefit-cost model for pavement resurfacing and other countermeasures; the influence of grooving of road pavements on accident frequency and effectiveness of antilock brakes in passenger cars.
