  1. Accident classification

    Accident classification is a standardized method by which the causes of an accident, including the root causes, are grouped into categories. Accident classification is mainly used in aviation but can be expanded into other areas, such as railroad or health care. While accident reports are very detailed, the goal of accident classification is to look at a broader picture. By analysing a multitude of accidents and applying the same standardized classification scheme, patterns in how accidents develop can be detected and correlations can be built. The advantage of a standardized accident classification is that statistical methods can be used to gain more insight into accident causation. A good accident classification system is easy to apply, ideally it is intuitive to use, covers as many aspects as possible human performance, organisational issues, technological issues, threat and error management ... with each other. Accident vs Incident Classification A good accident classification taxonomy is also suitable for incident investigation. The difference between an accident and an incident is the end state.

  1. Converse accident

    unreferenced date September 2011 Mergeto hasty generalization date January 2010 The logical fallacy of converse accident also called reverse accident , destroying the exception , or a dicto secundum quid ad dictum simpliciter is a deductive fallacy that can occur in a statistical syllogism when an exception to a generalization is wrongly excluded, and the generalization wrongly called for as applying to all cases. For example If we allow people with glaucoma to use medical marijuana , then everyone should be allowed to use marijuana. The Induction philosophy inductive version of this fallacy is called hasty generalization . See faulty generalization . This fallacy is similar to the slippery slope , where the opposition claims that if a restricted action under debate is allowed, such as allowing people with glaucoma to use medical marijuana, then the action will by stages become acceptable in general, such as eventually everyone being allowed to use marijuana. The two arguments imply there is no difference between the exception and the rule, and in fact fallacious slippery slope arguments often use the converse accident to the contrary as the basis for the argument. However, a key difference between the two is the point and position being argued. The above argument using converse accident is an argument for full legal use of marijuana given that glaucoma patients use it. The argument based on the slippery slope argues against medicinal use of marijuana because it will lead to full use. The opposing kind of dicto simpliciter is accident fallacy accident .

  1. Accident blackspot

    Refimprove date June 2007 An accident blackspot is a term used in road safety management to denote a place where road traffic accidents have historically been concentrated. It may have occurred for a variety of reasons, such as a sharp drop or corner in a straight road, so oncoming traffic is concealed, a hidden junction on a fast road, poor or concealed warning signs at a cross roads. For some decades treatment of accident blackspots e.g. by signage, speed restrictions, improving sightlines, straightening bends, or speed cameras was a mainstay of road safety policy, but current thinking has it that the benefits of these interventions are often overstated. Effects such as regression to the mean ref University College London UCL and PA Consulting Group for Department for Transport http www.dft.gov.uk pgr roadsafety speedmanagement nscp nscp coll thenationalsafetycameraprog thenationalsafetycameraprogr4598 UK national safety camera programme Four year evaluation report December 2005 Appendix H describes the effects of RTM ref , risk compensation ref cite paper title A driving simulator test of Wilde s risk homeostasis theory author Jackson JSH, Blackman R date 1994 publisher Journal of Applied Psychology ref and accident migration combine to reduce the overall benefit.

In one notable experiment, a number of accident blackspots were treated with a null treatment placement of a garden gnome , according to some reports. Accident rates at these points were found to have decreased significantly in the following period, a finding which is taken as clear evidence supporting the theory of regression to the mean.

  1. Accident migration

    Unreferenced date January 2009 Accident migration refers to a situation where action to reduce road traffic accident s in one place may result in those accidents resurfacing elsewhere. For example, an accident blackspot may occur at a dangerous bend. The treatment for this may be to increase signage, post an advisory speed limit, apply a high friction road surface, add crash barriers or any one of a number of other visible interventions. The immediate result may be to reduce collisions at the bend, but the subconscious relaxation on leaving the dangerous bend may cause drivers to act with fractionally less care on the rest of the road, resulting in an increase in collisions elsewhere on the road, and no overall improvement over the area. In the same way, increasing familiarity with the treated area will often result in a reduction over time to the previous level of care regression to the mean and may result in faster speeds around the bend due to perceived increased safety risk compensation .
