TTC-T-0084 - RSAP Module 2 - Anatomy of the Crash - Understanding Human Factors
Course Description
Course Description: This two-hour training will provide an overview of human factors principles and a framework for crash analysis. It will allow the non-expert in human factors to more effectively bring consideration of the road user’s capabilities and limitations into policies and practices. Knowing how road users interact with their vehicle, the roadway and other road users can also provide useful insights to the process of crash analysis. Armed with that knowledge, construction and maintenance personnel, planners, engineers, public health professionals and law enforcement can work together to target appropriate countermeasures to help reduce injury crashes.
Goals: Equip practitioners who do not work in or deal directly with human factors to better understand them and the role they play in roadway system policy, design, and operations.
Learning Objectives: Explain road user role as element of a system, identify road user capabilities and limitations, and describe how current geometric design and traffic operations practices address human factors.
