Risk affecting toward increased identified each comparisons made intention of identifying suitable countermeasures. The effect these strongly influential driver predictors that increase both groups controlled intersections, two-way undivided highways, reduced speed limits, urban roadway locations, driving during nighttime, rollover or hitting animals.
