N2  - Road accident statistics from the Indonesian Traffic Police Headquarters for the last decade show that there have been 10,000 fatalities on average per year. This situation has become a serious national issue. Since 1989 the Overseas Unit of Transport Research Laboratory has been involved in a collaborative research study on road safety with the Institute of Road Engineering in Bandung, using the Microcomputer Accident Analysis Package (MAAP). A pilot study to implement the MAAP system was set up in four regions. The characteristics of road accidents on selected low-volume roads are described and processes for identifying contributory factors at hazardous locations are introduced.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
