Abstract

The development of the number of motorized vehicles in Indonesia has increased every year. The increasing number of vehicles affects the number of developments in traffic accidents. It has a direct effect on the increase in the number of victims and losses due to accidents. This paper provides an overview of traffic accidents in Indonesia and the importance of efforts to prevent them. An accident, especially road traffic, results from a cumulative number of factors causing accidents, such as human factors, facility factors, infrastructure factors, and environmental factors. By knowing the leading causes of road traffic accidents, mitigation measures and recommendations can be determined to reduce the number of accidents. Traffic accidents can be reduced with a road safety management program that can be interpreted as an effort to deal with accidents that occur on the road crashes and improve vehicle technology that can minimize the impact and losses caused by accidents. Blindspot is one of the causes of accidents from the side. Blind-spot detection and blind-spot visualization (BSD/BSV) would help provide early detection/image to avoid collision with the motorcycle. It is expected that 37% of collisions can be avoided if all cars are equipped with such technology.KeywordsTraffic accidentBlind spot detectionRoad safetyTransportation
