A new approach to solving the problem of road traffic injuries in agricultural areas
In the Republic of Tatarstan from 1995 to the first half of 1999, there were 18,376 road traffic accidents (RTAs). They affected 23558 people, killed 3525 and injured 20033. The accident severity index averaged 14.8 during that period. Downward trends in the severity of accidents in 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998 were rather telling: 26.9; 17.6; 16.9; 13.7; 11.8. In spite of that, Tatarstan looks unfavorable against the background of other territories of the Russian Federation. In order to identify the cause-and-effect relations of the severity of traffic accidents, we conducted an in-depth study of them in the territory of cities and agricultural districts during this period.
