Abstract

According to the Finnish method, situations where braking or weaving begins 1.5 second or less before a potential collision are defined to be conflicts in urban traffic conditions, where the speed limit is 50 km/h. The time-to-collision value that defines conflicts varies with the speed limit or level at the study location. Also potential conflict situations are recorded in the Finnish method.
