Abstract

The traffic conflict technique is a new evaluating method based on non-accident statistics in traffic safety field. It evaluates rapidly and quantitatively traffic safety situation with multi stylebook and is different from traditional accident statistics. With studying the sixteen intersections in Kun Ming, a fuzzy clustering method in evaluation of traffic safety is proposed, based on traffic conflict regarding the ratio of traffic conflict and mixed passenger car unit (TC/MPCU) as stylebook character, which provides a new evaluation method for safety evaluation of intersection.
