Abstract

In recent years, the number of strollers in the public transportation facility has increased significantly and in proportion to that the number of near accidents has also increased. This study aims to investigate the concrete characteristics of the behavior of the people using strollers in the public transport system. An observation survey of the JR Kobe Line shows that the incidents leading to possible accidents are in particular when embarking or disembarking trains, when using escalators, or when ascending or descending stairs.
