... 3ment edge drop-off, vehicle type, speeding, influence of alcohol or drugs, driver age, and distraction. The necessary accuracy and resolution for the identified factors were also determined.
From page 4...
... 4Chapter 5 discusses potential lane departure crash surrogates that can be obtained from naturalistic driving study data. Literature on crash surrogates with an emphasis on lane departure crash surrogates is summarized, and a methodological approach for selecting and applying lane departure crash surrogates is outlined.
From page 5...
... 53. Logistic regression for correlated data that accounts for repeated sampling among observations (e.g., repeated sampling for the same driver, trip)
