The causes of hazardous chemicals transportation accidents include direct and indirect causes, among which the lack of management is an important one. Through structural equation modelling, this paper constructs a hypothetic relationship between management factors and direct influencing factors to hazardous chemicals transportation accidents, and conducts an empirical analysis. It is found that hazardous chemicals transportation enterprises should be responsible for the management on personnel, vehicle facilities and transportation process, that the transportation authority should be responsible for the management on road transportation of hazardous chemicals and that other regulatory authorities should be responsible for the management on hazardous chemicals transportation vehicles and facilities and emergency rescue.
