Abstract

Statistical control techniques, analagous to those employed in industrial quality control, can be applied to the study and control of highway accidents. This paper presents the development of the appropriate statistical techniques, together with the results of a pilot application of these techniques to an actual highway situation. The results show strong promise that the application of this method can contribute substantially to highway accident control.
