چکیده

 تصادفاتى که در بزرگراهها و در شرایط مه غلیظ روى مى ‏دهند، غالبا تصادفاتى دسته جمعى هستند که برخورد ده ها و گاهى اوقات صدها وسیله نقلیه را باعث مى ‏شوند که در نتیجه، خسارات مالى و تلفات جانى زیادى به بار مى‏ آید. همین عامل باعث جلب توجه رسانه ‏هاى گروهى شده که خواهان پاسخ گویى به این شرایط و همچنین اقدامات صورت گرفته در زمینه کاهش اثرات مه هستند.
ما در این تحقیق، تصادفات اتفاق افتاده در شرایط مه غلیظ را براى یک دوره ده ساله مورد بررسى قرار داده‏ ایم. همچنین اقدامات بازدارنده در نظر گرفته شده در ساختار کانادایى سیستم‏ هاى حمل‏ و نقل هوشمند را به محک کنکاش و تحقیق سپرده ایم.

چکیده [English]

Accidents occurring on highways in dense fog condition are often multi-vehicle collisions involving a dozen or sometimes hundreds of vehicles, resulting in casualties and financial losses. The same reason has attracted the attention of the mass media that demand the authorities explain about these conditions, as well as about the measures taken to reduce the effects of fogs.
In this study, we have investigated the crashes in dense fog condition over a ten-year period. We have also examined deterrent measures in the Canadian structure of intelligent transportation systems.
