Abstract

Parking and accident data were collected on over 170 miles of streets in 10 cities in the U.S.A. Over 4800 accidents were tabulated and analyzed. No relationship was found between accident rate and street width or parking angle. Accident rate was found to vary, however, with land use and parking utilization. Field operational studies were made to the effects of different types of parking on speeds, vehicle placement, delays and conflicts.
