Abstract

Recently, using a bicycle is recommended under the growing concerns about health and environment, while the bicycle involved collision rate tends to increase. Some remarkable researches pointed out that a sight distance or driver's behaviors at intersections have affected an significant influence on bicycle safety, but the relationship between these factors are not clearly described together. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to investigate the possible factors of bicycle related accidents focused on the sight distance and driving behavior at unsignalized intersections along highway.
