Pedestrians make up by far the largest share of fatalities and cases of serious injury. Cyclists also feature disproportionately strongly in accidents involving serious injury. Pedestrians suffer serious accidents disproportionately often on stretches of road and at streetcar stops. Streetcars themselves are main responsible in only 15.7 percent of the analyzed accidents. Serious accidents occur, in particular, at signal-controlled intersections and on three- or four-lane roads with a separate streetcar track bed in the middle.ZeitschriftenaufsatzDM18062537Öffentlicher VerkehrStadtverkehrStraßenbahnGleisVerkehrsunfallUnfallursacheVerkehrssicherheitStraßenkreuzungTrasseGleisanlageUnfallstatistik
