Abstract
Every year road accident in Malaysia is kept rising, especially road accidents occur in between a collision with passenger cars, other motorcycles and single-motorcycle accidents. In early 2016, Johor has been mentioned as the highest ranking hazardous road accident especially federal roads. However, the problem road accident on hazardous road still unsolved even though others research has been done. This study using a new method design consistency and the accident prediction model to decreasing road accidents from occurring at hazardous road locations. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of accidents between motorcycles and cars on select segments Federal route 050 (Jalan Kluang – Ayer Itam – Batu Pahat) and Federal route 023 (Jalan Muar – Tangkak). These studies were related a geometry elements of access point, median, shoulder width, lane width and continuous speed of motorcycle and cars to determine value design consistency model (IC) and threshold. The data collections were GPS DG-200 to collect continuous speed data, the geometry data collection during the site visit and police data. The models were developed based on the new method of speed profiles, analysis to determine the value of the index integrated design consistency model (IC) between motorcycles and cars. The result showed similarities the value of design consistency model with hazardous locations. Hence, the developed accident prediction model was related road design consistency models and accident rates to evaluate the impact of design consistency with road safety. Therefore, based on results and analysis, some discussions of geometric elements based on design consistency result and relationship with road accident occurs between motorcycles and cars at hazardous road locations and some of recommended are provided such as improve widen shoulder for inadequate shoulder, increase enforcement for illegal parking and others.
