Compact accident research
  • 133 | Single-Vehicle accidents of cyclists 13.01.2025
    The majority of cycling accidents in Germany are collisions between two parties. However, single-vehicle accidents of cyclists without the involvement of a second party are becoming increasingly relevant.

  • 131 | Analysis of accidents resulting in cyclist fatalities on rural roads 06.12.2024
    In 2023, 446 cyclists were killed in road traffic accidents in Germany, approxi-mately 42 percent of them (189 cyclists) outside of built-up areas.

  • 129 | Distance-related behaviour on motorways 06.12.2024
    There were a total of 17,755 accidents involving personal injury on Germany’s motorways in 2022, that is approximately 11 percent fewer than in 2019. This change is due, in particular, to the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.

  • 127 | Accidents caused by wrong-way driving on motorways 15.10.2023
    The purpose of the present study is to use accident data relating to wrong-way driving incidents on motorways in order to identify patterns, assess possible countermeasures and compare their effectiveness.

  • 125 | Distraction due to vehicle operation 06.07.2023
    Functions of vehicle operation, such as windscreen wiper settings, are increasingly being implemented digitally and operated via touch displays. They integrate many functions. However their operation distracts from the driving task. In a study, the UDV therefore investigated how in-vehicle HMI should be designed to be as least distractive as possible.

  • 123 | The role of farm tractors in traffic accidents 16.10.2023
    More than 10 years ago, the German Insurers Accident Research assessed the accident risk posed by farm tractors in roadtraffic and identified typical patterns. Initial assessments of the figures currently reported in the German traffic accident statistics and the insurers’ accident database (UDB) have shown that the occurrence of accidents involving farm tractors has changed during the intervening period.

  • 122 | Feedback intervention for senior drivers (II) 23.05.2023
    The so-called “feedback intervention for senior drivers in real traffic situa-tions” was developed as part of a UDV pilot project undertaken in 2019 in order to maintain the driving competencies of senior car drivers in the long term or even to improve these.

  • 120 | Occupant injury severity and gender: Evidence for a gender gap? 09.01.2023
    For some time, society has increasingly been using the term “gender gap” to discuss whether women are under-represented compared to men as beneficiaries of research and development and whether insufficient con[1]sideration is paid to their gender-related specificities. The aim of the present study was to determine the influence of gender on the risk of serious injury to car occupants on the basis of German accident data.

  • 118 | Evaluation of speed monitoring measures 10.01.2023
    Fixed speed cameras are very effective in reducing accidents. That is one of the findings of a new study by the German Insurers A cident Research.

  • 117| Supposedly unimportant? Accident between cars and cyclists in driveways 04.11.2022
    Are accidents between cars and cyclists in driveways supposedly unimportant? In order to investigate this question, the German Insurers Accident Research has examined accidents of this type as part of a study.
