1 The Road Users Perspective and KiwiRAP Mike Noon General Manager Motoring Affairs NZ Roadmarkers Federation Conference August 09
2 What is the AA and why does it care? Club with 1.25m Members Not for profit advocacy 17 AA Districts adopt Champion projects Create public impetus to make roads safer Motorists pay majority of national land transport fund Members support road safety
3 I don t have any faults I m a great driver Motorists 101 As I see myself Even though all drivers have experienced a near miss 86% rate themselves better than average
4 You Driving Motorists 101 Blind and dangerous to your lack of skills
5 The results of denial Motorists 101 Two thirds of fatal crashes involve one vehicle and one driver who over-estimated their ability to drive quickly, stay awake, master the weather or get through the intersection.
6 With tragic results Motorists 101 A moment s distraction by a child and into one of thousands of kilometres of deadly roadside ditches.
7 The cost is not affordable Every day 1 New Zealand road user is killed 5 are seriously injured, some permanently ACC pays $350m / year on motor vehicle crashes The social cost is $3 billion per year. Each year 16,000 people are killed, seriously injured or injured on our roads (the town of Cambridge)
8 Causes of death:
9 100-Car Naturalistic Driving Study Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) cars: 1 yr, 241 drivers, hrs, 2 million miles Not looking where going within 3 sec of 80% of crashes 65% of near-crashes 93% of rear-end-striking crashes Previously, inattention thought a contributing factor in ~25% of crashes 4 categories: secondary tasks, fatigue, driving-related inattention, non-specific eye glance
10 Distraction/inattention Need to elevate in importance Role of research and crash data 1. Inattention, loss of concentration, not just distraction 2. Largest road safety risk high, not medium, priority 3. Need data on inattention current CAS data inadequate 4. Forgiving roads and roadsides; rumble strips 5. User-friendly control mechanisms (thresholds vs signs) 6. Reduce in-vehicle distraction (ban cellphones, texting; monitor GPS and other technology) 7. Widespread public education needed
11 Fatigue Fatigue a contributing factor 12% of crashes 10% of near-crashes Previous estimate was 2-4% of crashes Much bigger factor than realised
12 Fatigue Keep pushing the known messages 1. Need better data on fatigue 2. Need forgiving roads and roadsides 3. Educate about fatigue 4. Target tourists, older drivers, young drivers and shift workers 5. Funding to identify and treat sleep disorders 240,000 undiagnosed OSA in NZ Cheaply treatable
13 Causes of death: % were not licensed, and breaking speed and alcohol laws. We need to make licences mean something and clamp down on unlicensed driving. 25% were old people. They don t intend to die but misjudge roads and are fatigued. More effort is needed on this group. 10% were year old men on big bikes. We have to tell them there are better ways of proving they still have it.
14 Causes of death: % swung wide on corners. Its not speed limits but the physical limits in different conditions. We need to teach young drivers to leave a safety margin. Fatigue kills truck drivers, old people and tourists. In the South Island especially low cost engineering would help a lot. Maori make up half of those killed by drunk drivers, many of whom are Maori. We need new approaches to the drink driving message that Maori will listen to.
15 Drugs Crims Over represented in fatalities Hardcore drink drivers Unlicensed drivers Do not obey other laws how to manage?
16 Points to note Too high an opinion of our own driving Over-estimate our ability to handle speed, alcohol, fatigue, large motorcycles, aging and distractions Need a Safe System Approach: enforcement and punishment is not the answer New Zealand needs a cultural make-over to make driving less aggressive and less competitive
17 Road Safety Strategy 2020 Vision A safe road system that is increasingly free of road deaths and serious injuries work towards eliminating death & serious injury a progressively increasing level of safety
18 Priority Issues
19 THE SAFE SYSTEM Safer roads and roadsides Safer speeds Safer vehicles and Safer road use goes beyond traditional focus: fix the driver onto all components of road environment
20 Why Roads Greatest potential to reduce road toll Long lasting Fiscally positive Source: aaa.asn.au
21
22 Vision Zero Any well functioning man-machine system brings the failing human into the loop Blaming the victim approach is a catastrophe to prevention If 95% of the cause is driver error, is 95% of the solution to change the driver? The cheapest most effective solution is to change the roads TRAFINZ 2007 Anders Lie
23 System designers are responsible for the design, operation and use of the road system and thus the level of safety in the entire system Road users are responsible for following the rules for using the road system set by the system designers If the users fail to comply with these rules due to a lack of knowledge, acceptance or ability.. System designers are responsible for taking the necessary further steps to counteract people being killed or injured TRAFINZ 2007 Anders Lie
24 Roads and Roadsides 1. Forgiving roads remove hazards; instal barriers; widen shoulders 2. Self explaining roads road design encourages drivers to use appropriate speeds 3. Road hierarchy protect safety and function of high speed high volume roads 4. Use KiwiRAP to communicate and prioritise 5. Rumble strips and reflective markings 6. High friction surfacing 7. Level crossings safety
25 Many of our black routes look like this 25
26 Which is why many of our black routes look like this 26
27 Audio Tactile: Next Major Step Three warning systems: Visual, Audible, Tactile Early warning of roadside hazards, oncoming traffic Protect cyclists from cars Assists wet night visibility Durable Save lives t 27
28 Self explaining roads
29 Hierarchy of roads Explains itself as <80kph Explains itself as >100kph
30 Hierarchy of roads Motorway Arterial Low speed

32 International Programmes
33 KiwiRAP Model Joint Agency approach Automobile Association New Zealand Transport Agency Ministry of Transport NZ Police ACC
34 RAP Protocols Road Assessment Programmes internationally consist of three protocols: Risk Mapping crash statistics displayed on a map to visually distinguish between high and low risk routes Star Rating rating of between 1 and 5 stars based on how well the road itself is engineered for safety. Performance Tracking measures changes in risk over time
35 Progress Formally launched KiwiRAP in New Zealand through the release of our first set of Risk Maps in January 2008 Currently working on Star Ratings
36 Who Will Benefit? Road users: Raised awareness of risk Adapt driving and better understand need for laws Want to see safer roads Government Road Controlling Authorities, planners and engineers: Assisting in decision-making about road investments Overall performance of a particular road can be compared to others Rising road standards can be tracked Makes the business case for road improvements
37 Star Ratings Risk Maps show us where crashes are occurring but not why Next step is Star Ratings Measure the safety that is built-in to the road A rating between 1 and 5 stars is given Independent of crash statistics Will enable sections of road that are likely to be risky to be identified (and fixed) before a crash occurs
38 How is the Data Collected? cameras on a vehicle Road rating from video
39 What Elements are Rated? Mid-block characteristics - RPS Road section type Lane width Sealed shoulder Horizontal alignment* Terrain* Delineation Overtaking line marking Overtaking requirements* Speed environment* Offset and severity of roadside hazards Intersection characteristics Intersection type Side road risk adjustment (volume of side road)* Alignment of legs Sight distance Right turn provision Left turn provision Speed environment (of through road) * Assess off-line in KiwiRAP based on speed data at 10 m intervals
40 Bruce Highway, QLD Severe roadside Narrow shoulders Bad overtaking Curves Undivided
41 Hume Hwy, VIC Straight Moderate roadside Good overtaking Good lines Wide shoulders Wide lanes Divided
