AMATS Staff
RE:
Traffic Crashes 2011-2013 Technical Memorandum
DATE:
September 10, 2014
The attached Traffic Crashes 2011-2013 technical memorandum has been updated from previous
versions and is now divided into two sections. The first section is location oriented and similar to
previous crash memos. All crashes that occurred on non-freeway roadways in the AMATS study
area were analyzed. All the segments and intersections that meet the minimum criteria of ten or
more crashes and a crash rate of one or more within the three-year period being studied are
listed. This is also the minimum criterion required for a project to be considered for funding
under ODOT’s Highway Safety Program.
The crash locations are ranked by a composite score. The composite score is derived from where
the location ranks according to number of crashes, crash rate, and severity. Tables one and two
list all the segments and intersections according to their composite score.
The second section of the crash memo focuses on bicycle and pedestrian crashes. These crashes
tend to occur more randomly and are usually not concentrated at specific locations. Therefore
this section of the memo is trend oriented. It highlights some of the characteristics of all the
bicycle crashes and all the pedestrian crashes.
The Staff requests that the attached technical memorandum be approved by motion as
documentation of work completed. Once this memorandum has been approved, local
governments may use it as an initial step in the process of applying for Highway Safety Program
funds through ODOT or planning bicycle and pedestrian improvements.
More information about crashes, including bicycle and pedestrian, at any specific location or for
any community can be requested.

Traffic Crashes
2011 - 2013
Section 1: All Crashes
Overview
Over the past decade the number of crashes and injuries has been steadily declining in the AMATS area
and statewide. However over the past three years that this memo covers the number has remained nearly
steady. It should be noted that there have been two changes that have affected the total number of crashes
being analyzed.
•
•
Beginning in 2013, police agencies do not have to report crashes where there are no injuries and the
damage to a vehicle is less than $1,000.
The addition of Milton Township and the city of Rittman to the AMATS study area. This new study
area added 441 additional crashes over the three year period.
Between the years of 2011 and 2013, AMATS extracted 54,838 records from the Ohio Department of Public
Safety (ODPS). Crashes that do not relate to the characteristics of the roadway are removed.
•
•
2,664 animal related crashes
813 construction zone crashes
The remaining 51,361 crashes were then separated into those that occur on roadway sections,
intersections, and freeways.
•
•
•
19,291 roadway section crashes
23,666 intersection crashes
8,404 freeway related crashes.
The following graph shows the number of crashes and injuries (with animal and construction zone removed)
in the AMATS area since 2002.

Methodology
The first step in producing a list of high crash roadway sections and intersections is identifying the locations
that meet the minimum thresholds based on number of crashes.
.
• The criteria for roadway sections is 10 or more crashes per mile per year.
• The criteria for intersections is 10 or more crashes in the three-year period.
Once this initial group of high crash locations is identified a crash rate is calculated. The crash rate takes
into account the average daily traffic volume. For example, ten crashes per year at a location that averages
1,000 vehicles per day has a worse crash rate than ten crashes per year at a location that averages 30,000
vehicles per day. The formula is given in the Appendix.
•
A minimum crash rate of 1.0 is required for a roadway section or an intersection to be included in the
list of high crash locations.
Next the severity index is calculated for locations that meet the minimum number of crashes and crash rate.
The severity index is a ratio of how many fatal and injury crashes happen compared to total crashes. This
measure is useful when determining which locations should have priority in order to not only reduce crashes
but to also reduce fatalities and injuries. The formula is given in the Appendix.
Finally a composite score is calculated based on how a location scores according to number of crashes,
crash rate and severity index. This score defines the final rank of the location.
High Crash Sections
A section is defined as a length of roadway between two logical termini such as an intersection with another
roadway. The length of a section is usually between 0.5 miles in an urban area to a maximum of 4.0 miles
in a rural area. All roads in the AMATS area were considered, including those that are not federally
classified.
•
AMATS has identified 124 high crash roadway sections.
•
Table 1 lists the 124 high-crash roadway sections ranked by composite score. Map 1 shows the
location of the top 50 high-crash sections.
High Crash Intersections
Crashes that occur within a radius of 0.05 miles (260 feet) from the center of an intersection and involve at
least two vehicles are considered an intersection related crash. All intersections in the AMATS area were
considered, including those that were not federally classified.
•
AMATS has identified 271 intersections that have a minimum of 10 crashes and a crash rate of one
or more over the three-year period.
•
Table 2 lists the 271 high-crash intersections ranked by composite score. Map 2 shows the location
of the top 50 high-crash intersections.
2
High Crash Freeway Locations
The analysis of freeway crashes in the AMATS area is done by the central office of the Ohio Department of
Transportation (ODOT) in Columbus.
•
A freeway is defined as a limited access divided highway. This includes all state routes with
interstate characteristics such as SR 8 and SR 21.
ODOT’s analysis of freeways is done using methodology from the recently released Highway Safety
Manual. The freeway system is divided into rural and urban and is analyzed by examining segments that
are one-tenth of a mile long. There were 83 freeway locations in the AMATS area that had a “higher than
predicted crash frequency”. ODOT only considers the top 50 rural and top 50 urban locations statewide for
further study.
•
Only eight freeway locations in the AMATS area appeared on the top 50 lists and four of those were
on the Ohio Turnpike. The other four are shown on the map below along with their statewide rank.

Section 2: Bicycle and Pedestrian Crashes
Overview
As biking and walking becomes a more popular and viable means of transportation, there is growing
concern about the safety of bike riders and pedestrians. Determining how and where these incidents occur
can help plan for future bike lanes, sidewalks, lighting, and educational outreach. Bike and pedestrian
related crashes tend to happen more randomly and usually do not have the characteristic of being
concentrated at specific locations like other vehicular crashes. Because of this it is sometimes more
practical to make improvements system wide or to a corridor rather than to a specific location.
The Ohio Revised Code considers a bicycle a slow moving vehicle and generally speaking is subject to the
same laws and responsibilities as a motor vehicle. Bike riders can be issued a citation if they are guilty of
breaking laws. Local governments have the ability to make some of their own rules and laws which may be
inconsistent between communities.
Education is an important tool to help curb bike and pedestrian related crashes. Many bike riders and
pedestrians, especially those under the driving age, may not be aware of the rules that they must observe.
Bike and pedestrian related crashes have a high percentage of injuries.
•
Out of the 349 bicycle related crashes that occurred between 2011 and 2013, 281 or nearly 80% of
them resulted in an injury and two of them in a fatality.
•
There were 488 pedestrian related crashes in this same time period with 430 or 88% of them
resulting in an injury and 13 of them in a fatality.
By comparison slightly over 25% of all vehicular crashes for the same three year period resulted in an injury.
Methodology
The bicycle or pedestrian crashes were already part of the data that was extracted from the Ohio
Department of Public Safety for the first section of this memo. The bicycle and pedestrian crashes were
pulled from the data and a complete police report was downloaded for each crash. The police report was
important because it showed a crash diagram and description of what happened. Data from the police
reports was compiled and used to identify trends and patterns.
The following pages highlight some of the trends for bicycle and pedestrian related crashes.

Most bicycle related crashes occur at intersections (nearly 69%). Bicycle riders are at fault in nearly 55% of
the incidents. Sometimes bike riders, especially younger ones, do not obey stop signs and traffic signals.
Often a vehicle does not see a bicycle and turns into it. Many times a driver is not expecting a bicycle in the
crosswalk or misjudges its speed. If a bicycle rider is biking against traffic a driver may not look that
direction when turning.

It is important to distinguish between fault and citation. In most cases one of the units is at fault for causing
a crash. A citation is a ticket issued by the police officer if they felt the unit at fault actually broke a law.
The graph above shows that in 190 or 54% of the incidents the bike rider was at fault but most of the time
they were not issued a citation. Sometimes this was because they were a minor or didn’t actually break any
written laws. By comparison a higher percentage of drivers, nearly 58%, were cited for an improper action
when they were at fault. Sometimes the fault was hard to determine because one of the units left the scene
or the report was filed at the police station.

Primary Types of Bicycle Related Crashes and Fault
The following graph shows the types of bicycle related crashes that occurred and who was considered at fault
according to the police reports. Regardless of fault, two actions that contributed to many of the bike related crashes
was riding against traffic (100 crashes) and riding on the sidewalk (113 crashes).

35% of the time. The most common action by a pedestrian was darting out in front of a vehicle. In 21% of
the crashes the fault was hard to determine because either the vehicle or pedestrian left the scene or
witnesses gave conflicting stories. Nearly 38% of the pedestrian related crashes occurred in dark
conditions and many times the pedestrian was wearing dark clothing.

Summary
AMATS is committed to following a planning process that recognizes the importance of safety. This is
accomplished by incorporating the results of safety studies into the development of transportation
recommendations for the Regional Transportation Plan and used as evaluation criteria for selecting projects
for funding. The Traffic Crashes 2011-2013 technical memorandum was developed to further this goal by
identifying locations and trends.
•
The total number of crashes (without animal and construction zone crashes) remained nearly the
same in 2011 and 2012 and increased slightly in 2013.
•
The locations identified in this technical memorandum meet the minimum criteria that ODOT has
established to define a high-crash location.
•
The locations listed in this memorandum may be used by a community as a first step in the process
of applying for federal Highway Safety Program funding through ODOT.
The Ohio Revised Code considers a bicycle a slow moving vehicle and generally speaking is subject to the
same laws and responsibilities as a motor vehicle. Many drivers are not used to sharing the road with bike
riders. And as biking gains momentum and cyclists start using roads more, the potential for vehicle/bike
conflicts increase. Education, for bike riders, pedestrians, and drivers could have a significant impact on
safety as these transportation alternatives become popular.
Younger bike riders and pedestrians are more likely to be involved in an accident. Many times they are not
aware of rules they should be following. Although a bike rider may feel safer on a sidewalk, in reality it may
actually be more dangerous because drivers are not expecting a cyclist to be there. Another issue is cyclists
riding against traffic. The opposite direction rule may apply to pedestrians but not bike riders. Often a driver
does not expect a bike to be coming from the opposite direction.

APPENDIX A – Crash Formulas
Roadway Sections
Crashes Per Mile =
Crash Rate =
(3 year crash total)
= crashes per mile per year
(3 years)(section length)
(3 year crash total) 1,000,000
(3 years)(ADT)(365 days/year)(section length)
= crashes per million vehicle miles traveled
Intersections
Crash Rate =
(3 year crash total) 1,000,000
(3 years)(intersection approach volume/day)(365 days/year)
= crashes per million approach vehicles
Roadway Sections and Intersections
Severity Index = 12 (fatal crashes)+3 (injury crashes)+1 (property damage crashes)
(total crashes)

APPENDIX B – Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety Tips
Safety Tips for Drivers Encountering Bike Riders
•
•
•
•
Bicyclists are required to ride as far to the right of the road as practicable, but are legally permitted to
utilize the full traffic lane when necessary to protect their own safety.
Bicyclists should be treated like any other slow-moving vehicle: they should only be passed when
there are no oncoming cars and sight lines are clear. When passing a bicyclist, ensure there is a
minimum of 3 feet between your car and the bicycle.
Beware of bicyclists who might be in your blind spot or are otherwise difficult to see.
Exercise extra caution when approaching children on bikes and at multi-use path crossings.
Safety Tips for Bike Riders
•
•
•
•
•
•
Bicyclists are required to follow the same rules of the road as other drivers: stop at stop signs and
red lights, and ride in the same direction as other traffic.
Bicyclists should position themselves at least a few feet from the curb, and should especially avoid
riding in the gutter. When parked cars are present, steer clear of the “door zone”.
Bicyclists should not weave in and out of traffic or pass queued traffic at a stop sign or traffic light,
unless a bike lane is provided.
In most cases, bicyclists should not ride on sidewalks. This is especially important in urban areas, as
motorists are less likely to see bicyclists behind parked cars, street trees, and other obstacles.
Bicyclists should yield to pedestrians at crosswalks and on multi-use paths and sidewalks (where
sidewalk riding is permitted).
Bicyclists can promote safe interactions with motorists by being courteous yet assertive. Examples
include riding single file or pulling over when cars are backed up behind your group, using hand
signals and making eye contact, and using the full lane when it is unsafe for cars to pass.
Safety Tips for Drivers Encountering Pedestrians
•
•
•
Drivers must yield the right of way to pedestrians crossing in marked or unmarked crosswalks (there
is technically a crosswalk at every street or road intersection, even if it’s not marked).
At signals, drivers must yield to pedestrians when the WALK signal is displayed.
Distracted driving is an increasingly common cause of crashes and poses particular concerns for
pedestrians, who are often less visible and more susceptible to injury than other motorists.
Safety Tips for Pedestrians
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Pedestrians must cross at intersections or midblock crosswalks.
Pedestrians must obey WALK/DON’T WALK signals where provided, and otherwise cross with the
green light. A flashing DON’T WALK signal indicates that it is too late to begin crossing, but that if
already in the crosswalk, you should continue walking to the other side.
Pedestrian distraction is just as dangerous as driver distraction. Pedestrians should turn off their
handheld devices, mp3 players, etc. when crossing the street or walking in busy areas.
Pedestrians generally should not assume that they are visible to drivers, or that drivers will follow the
rules of the road.
Pedestrians should give drivers plenty of time to stop before entering a crosswalk.
When a sidewalk is not available, pedestrians should walk facing traffic.
At night, pedestrians should wear reflective clothing and also consider using flashing lights.
