During the past years, the linear logit model has been used extensively in modal choice analysis. More recently, the introduction of Box-Cox transformations on the explanatory variables in passenger studies have generally shown the superiority of the Box-Cox logit over the linear logit....

We provide a primarily qualitative summary of the DRAG model of the Demand for Road use, Accidents and their Gravity. We show the comprehensive nature of the model in terms of structure, categories of factors taken into account and parameter estimation technique used. We note in particular how...

The third part of the state-of-the-art focuses on the future of road safety modeling and on conjectures concerning the evolution of national safety indicators. In the absence of econometric developments specific to road safety modeling, the research future must rely on pre-existing statistical...

The second part of the state-of-the-art focuses on the development of the founders' double streams explaining single-outcome indicators (probability of accidents and fatalities, respectively) by fixed form regression, as outlined in the Part 1. Following Page (1997, pp. 67–122, 2001) and...

We address the issue of the allocation of railway track maintenance (wear-and-tear) costs to traffic output classes and consider a very general function relating maintenance cost C to a set of technical production characteristics K used to produce traffic output vector T. We neglect other rail...

We interpret the often mentioned difference between Logsum and average utility in terms of Shannon's (1948) information measure S, leading to a Path Aggregation THeorem (PATH). It states that, in transport networks where unique measures of the utility of multiple paths are required for demand...

This first part of the state-of-the art focuses on the origins of road safety modeling, covering data, early models and the public health context of model formulation and use.
