TY - JOUR PY - 2023// TI - Macro data analysis on situations under which pedal misapplication accidents occur JO - Transactions of Society of Automotive Engineers of Japan A1 - Kato, Yoko A1 - Miyazaki, Itsuki A1 - Abe, Akihiro A1 - Sekine, Michiaki SP - 901 EP - 907 VL - 54 IS - 5 N2 - To discuss the causes of pedal misapplication accidents, we analyzed primary party drivers' number of pedal misapplication accidents in the past decade using the Japan Traffic Accident General Database. We examined the relationship between factors such as road types and driving movements and compared them between elderly and non-elderly drivers. When the effects of traffic exposure were offset by using the number of secondary parties in rear-end collisions, it was confirmed that elderly drivers over the age of 75 were particularly more likely to be involved in pedal misapplication accidents relative to their traffic exposure.
