N2  - Several measures are proposed for an evaluation of the effectiveness of the methods used for the identification of high risk sections on rural roads. Two categories of measures are taken into account. The first concerns the level of concentration of accidents along hazardous road sections, as well as the accident severity. The second category concerns repeatability of the identification procedures during two consecutive time periods in relation both to the location of dangerous sections along a road and to some features of road accidents. The measures are applied to three Polish methods and real data are used to conduct a comparison. Some things are found to be lacking in the identification methods.<p />
