Abstract

In order to have a general understanding of current transportation safety in China and promote coordinated development of transportation safety systems, safety level of railway, road, waterway and air transport modes in China is analyzed. By using comparative research method, safety level of these four transportation modes were compared comprehensively from four aspects-total accident number, accident rate, serious accidents and international comparison. The results show that there is obvious difference in safety level of four modes. In terms of total accident number and accident rate, their order from high to low is road, railway, waterway and air transportation. While being ranked according to serious accidents, it is road, waterway, railway and air transportation from high to low. Compared internationally, China is basically the same as developed countries in regard to safety of railway transportation, but lags far behind developed countries in that of road transportation. And there is a certain gap between China's waterway transportation safety and that of developed countries, but China's air transportation safety is obviously better than world average and also than that of developed countries. © 2019 China Safety Science Journal.
