TY - GEN TI - There is no need to wait for accidents applying observation of traffic conflicts and behaviour in Czech practice T3 - 27th ICTCT workshop AU - Valentová, Veronika AU - Turek, Richard AU - Ambros, Jiří AB - Contrary to traditional reactive perspective based on traffic accident occurrence, evaluation using surrogate safety measures is preferred in a proactive safety approach. Traffic conflicts have been one of such indicators; to enable their use in Czech practice, Czech traffic conflict technique and guidelines were developed. The paper presents the study requested by road agency with objective of proving the feasibility of the guidelines. The case study assessed the risk at a newly-built rural intersection on motorway exit ramp before and after a change of road marking. Methodology, observation of traffic conflicts and behaviour, its findings and practical conclusions are reported.
