Exploring weather-related factors affecting the delay caused by traffic incidents: Mitigating the negative effect of traffic incidents

Background: Existing studies mainly focus on the relationship between real-time weather and traffic crash injury severity, while few scholars have investigated the operation risk levels caused by traffic incidents. Identifying weather-related factors that affect the incident-induced delay is helpful for estimating the delay levels when 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...
