Proposing an effective approach for traffic safety assessment on heterogeneous traffic conditions using surrogate safety measures and speed of the involved vehicles.

Objective: The vehicular traffic in the cities is becoming more complex in developing countries like India due to the rising population and rapid urbanization. With the annually increasing road accidents, a study on the effective safety assessment of heterogeneous traffic conditions is needed. The study aims to evaluate the safety of heterogeneous traffic by spotting the critical conflicts with respect to the speed of the involved vehicles.
