Abstract

Résumé—Every day, road accidents cause human and material losses and become one of the world’s most serious problems. The National Observatory for Road Safety in Tunisia (NORS) has reported that the number of accidents has significantly increased year over year. The severity of the current road safety situation in Tunisia is highlighted by the increase in accidents from 5, 089 in 2021 to 5, 715 in 2022. In order to fight this phenomenon and improve the road safety situation in Tunisia, we propose a road classification approach based on road traffic severity analysis. Our proposal offers a new methodology for classifying roads according to their dangerousness based on the accident history. Our goal is to help NORS to orient their actions and improve road safety.
