TY - JOUR PY - 1956// TI - Application of statistical quality-control techniques to analysis of highway-accident data JO - Highway Research Board bulletin A1 - Norden, Monroe A1 - Orlansky, Jesse A1 - Jacobs, Herbert SP - 17 EP - 31 VL - 117 IS - N2 - Statistical control techniques, analagous to those employed in industrial quality control, can be applied to the study and control of highway accidents. This paper presents the development of the appropriate statistical techniques, together with the results of a pilot application of these techniques to an actual highway situation. The results show strong promise that the application of this method can contribute substantially to highway accident control.
