Samenvatting
In an effort to prove the valid connection between conflicts and accidents observations of conflicts were done at 6 approaches to road intersections. Starting out from an American recording manual the types of conflict were changed in a way that an assignment to the accident categories of the official list of the causes of accidents was possible. Further, a new breakdown of the seriousness of conflicts had to be developed. The recorded conflicts were set off against the accidents of the past 3 years. A multiple regression rate featuring the criteria of the quantity of traffic and degrees of the seriousness of conflicts lead to a satisfactory forecast of accidents.
