Exploring the Behavior-Driven Crash Risk Prediction Model: The Role of Onboard Navigation Data in Road Safety

Table 3

Independent variable description of each data at the given time interval.

Variable format and subscript meaning

Capital letter: the category of abnormal behavior
 L: sharp-left-lane-change behavior
 R: sharp-right-lane-change behavior
 A: sharp-acceleration behavior
 B: sudden-braking behavior
Letter after the 1st underscore: the derivative feature
 n: number of abnormal behaviors
 a: the average max_accelerate during all abnormal behaviors
 v: the average max_velocity during all abnormal behaviors
Letter after the 2nd underscore: the position relative to the accident site
 up: within 250 m upstream
 dn: within 250 m downstream
e.g., B_v_dn means “average max_v of all sudden-braking within 250 m downstream of the crash coordinate”
