TY - JOUR PY - 1988// TI - Accident blackspots and the bivariate negative binomial JO - Traffic engineering and control A1 - Senn, SJ A1 - Collie, GS SP - 168 EP - 169 VL - 29 IS - 3 N2 - It is shown how the method of maximum likelihood in connection with a bivariate negative binomial distribution may be used to separate treatment effects from regression to the mean effects when analyzing data giving the frequency of accidents in two time periods for a number of sites on a road network. The method is illustrated using data from the Lothian Road Accident Statistics System (LORASS).
