- Abstract
This paper introduces an effective and efficient approach to teaching highway safety analysis. Using an internet-based client server framework, this system accesses the central database in the public safety department to extract data. Through query operations, students can view any accident statistics to search for roadway design deficiencies or traffic control problems. The system automatically generates the collision diagram, which substantially reduces the time and simplifies the complexities associated with manual handling of accident data. Implementation experience has shown that the system is effective, reliable, and easy to use. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Comput Appl Eng Educ 9: 171–179, 2001
