Abstract
Road accidents are major problems resulting in loss of life and property. Schools are accident-prone locations because majority of road users are students understand about traffic rules. This research aimed to investigate the occurrence of road and pedestrian accidents at primary and secondary schools in Bangkok, Thailand. This research was collected statistical data on road traffic injuries and imported the collected data into Geographic Information System (GIS). Then, Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) was applied to analyze data of 12 schools in Bangkok Metropolis Administration areas. The results showed that a majority of road accidents occurred in urban areas, crowded areas and intersections with heavy traffic. The suggested solutions were that knowledge of understanding of traffic rules should be promoted among students and a traffic sign consistent with student's learning behavior should be provided.
