Abstract

A study was conducted to identify and rank dangerous traffic locations in Greater Amman, the capital of Jordan. Accident frequency, accident rate, critical rate, and accident seriousness measures were incorporated to develop a technique for ranking these sites for future improvement. It was proven that the use of accident frequency as the sole criterion for identifying or ranking hazardous locations may be misleading.
