Temporal stability of the impact of factors determining drivers’ injury severities across traffic barrier crashes in mountainous regions

Traffic barrier crashes have been a major concern in many prior studies in traffic safety literature, especially in the crash-prone sections of mountainous regions. However, the effect of factors affecting the injury-severities resulting from crashes involving different types of traffic barriers may be different. This paper provides an...

Bivariate joint analysis of injury severity of drivers in truck-car crashes accommodating multilayer unobserved heterogeneity

Truck-involved crashes, especially truck-car crashes, are associated with serious and even fatal injuries, thus necessitating an in-depth analysis. Prior research focused solely on examining the injury severity of truck drivers or developed separate performance models for truck and car drivers. However, the severity of injuries to both...
