The Hague will be the stage for the annual ICTCT (International Co-operation on Theories and Concepts in Traffic Safety) Conference on October 17-18, 2024. This year's edition is organised by Delft University of Technology . The event brings together traffic safety experts from around the world to share insights and research. Several of our researchers will also be presenting their work at this conference.
SWOV Presentations
Our researchers will contribute to various sessions, showcasing SWOV's ongoing commitment to advancing traffic safety:
- Dr Michelle Doumen will present the results of a validation in the Fitci project, exploring a new prediction model to assess safe driving capabilities for individuals with mild dementia, including Alzheimer's - Session 1A
- Dr Reinier Jansen will share an analysis of how arbitrary selection of post-encroachment time thresholds affects the findings in a study of right-angle bicyclist-vehicle conflicts - Session 1B
- Dr Charlotte Bax will discuss the effectiveness of focusing on individual responsibility in road safety measures - Session 8B
Two sessions will feature findings from the European Trendline study:
- Jan Hendrik van Petegem MSc will address the development of a European road safety performance indicator on safe urban areas with a speed limit of 30 km/h - Session 8a
- Sander van der Kint MSc will address the development of a European road safety performance indicator on driving under the influence of drugs - Session 8B
Importance of the Conference
The ICTCT Conference provides an invaluable platform for SWOV researchers to share their expertise and learn from international colleagues. This exchange of knowledge is crucial for advancing global traffic safety initiatives.
