The first phase in a study of traffic accidents in the province of Noord-Brabant, in which Noord-Brabant was compared with the other provinces in the Netherlands, has been completed. On the basis of the results of this study recommendations are made for phase 2, in which a selection will be made for further research. Research will be done in particular on: (1) front-rear collisions and side-collisions, (2) traffic accidents in dusk and darkness, (3) traffic accidents at junctions, (4) traffic accidents on the different days of the week and (5) traffic accidents in which one vehicle is involved. This research results in measures and recommendations for allocation of priorities to prevent accidents. For parts I and II see IRRD abstract no 224121.
