Always first check the lights and the gates before crossing, and if you don’t see anything, you can cautiously proceed. You should never switch gears on the train tracks, as it is a…

The concept of road safety as a public policy issue emerged in the 1990s as a response to the high homicide rates in the city. In this context, violence is considered a public health problem.

a U shaped curve [9]. Solomon obtained the estimated speed of the vehicles suffered the crashes by tracing the police reports. The author compiled a “modus speed” which implies a safe speed for that particular stretch of road by driving with the traffic flow [45]. Solomon created a crash proportion per speed category, a comparison ratio using the crash vehicle speeds and the modus speed for each category. The estimated travel speed from the accident records were compared to the speeds measured…
