Compact accident research
  • 113 | Evacuation from coaches 03.03.2022
    Although serious crashes and fire incidents involving buses and coaches are rare, they can have desastrous outcomes when they occur due to the large number of passengers transported in a single vehicle. The German Insurers Accident Research contracted a research project to Trier University in order to investigate into the possibilities to enhance and speed up the evacuation process in coaches. The focus was on accident scenarios, particularly those in which the coach tipped over onto its side.

  • 106 | Development of speed perception in children 23.02.2021
    Children often have accidents in road traffic when they cross a road on foot and do not pay attention to approaching vehicles. A study by the UDV has therefore investigated how children perceive speeds and how they behave when crossing the road.

  • 99 | Automated cars on motorways: Active and passive safety aspects 15.04.2020
    Automated driving is expected to make traffic flow more efficiently and reduce the number of road accident victims as well as emissions and traffic jams. The German Insurers Accident Research has car¬ried out a comprehensive study on motorway accidents involving cars. The aim of the study was to determine the overall safety effect of automated driving function.

  • 98 | Accident risk of parking for pedestrians and cyclists 09.07.2020
    Almost one in five accidents in built-up areas involving pedestrians or cyclists and injury is thus connected to parking. The biggest problems were dooring accidents and accidents where parked vehicles obstructed the view. In a research project, recommendations were developed on how to avoid these accidents.

  • 85 | Effectiveness of blue wildlife warning reflectors 22.10.2018
    In order to avoid accidents with wildlife, blue wildlife warning reflectors have been attached to the edge of the road for several years. A new, extensive study now shows, however, that these reflectors are also not suitable for significantly influencing the behavior of wild animals or the occurrence of accidents involving wild animals.

  • 83 | Evaluation of the P.A.R.T.Y. accident prevention program 28.09.2018
    P.A.R.T.Y. is a globally successful accident prevention program for school classes and young people between the ages of 15 and 18 in cooperation with leading accident clinics. The core of the program is the P.A.R.T.Y. day, on which school classes experience various stations of a (seriously) injured person in an accident clinic. Accidents are one of the most common causes of death among young people.

  • 82 | Use of child restraint systems 05.10.2018
    Many people these days are highly dependent on cars to get them where they want to be when they want to be there, and it goes without saying that they also want to take their children with them. The safety features of vehicles are designed for adult occupants. Consequently, special safety equipment has to be used for children (child restraint systems – CRSs).
