“…Roads are primarily complex and dangerous at intersections, with 89% of accidents at intersections caused by human error [7]. In Malaysia, the intersections come second after straight roads as the road segments where accidents most frequently occur [8]. The Ops Selamat or Operation Safe, which is a traffic-safety operation and campaign to ensure safety on all roads in Malaysia, conducted during festive seasons, reported that 91% of total motorcycle accidents were recorded at unsignalized intersections [9].…”

In Malaysia, as more than 50% of road collisions involve motorcyclists, the traffic safety of motorcyclists is critical and must be given priority. This study aims to understand the effects of attitudes, social influences, and control factors on the risky riding behavior of motorcyclists at unsignalized intersections in Malaysia. A motorcyclist-riding-behavior survey was conducted to collect and analyze the self-reported risky riding behaviors of motorcyclists. Three main analyses, namely, frequency and percentage, crosstabulation and test of independence (chi-squared), and logistic regression were adopted to assess the self-reported risky riding behavior and its correlation with outcomes, social influences, and factors. The obtained results show that negative outcomes (χ2 = 89.689, df = 54, p = 0.002) and negative social influences (χ2 = 32.554, df = 18, p = 0.019) are significantly associated with risky riding behavior, while control factors, inhibiting (χ2 = 66.889, df = 48, p = 0.037) and facilitating factors (χ2 = 96.705, df = 72, p = 0.028), have significant effects on risky riding behavior. A greater comprehension of motorcyclists’ risky riding behavior based on their self-reported risky riding behavior and beliefs can influence motorcyclists in making positive changes in their riding style.

“…As shown in Figure 1, 67% of traffic accidents occurred on straight roads. Compared to other road kinds, it has the highest representation [1]. The second type of road where crashes frequently happen is the intersection, followed by roundabouts and bend roads, with 14% and 1%, respectively.…”

“…However, severe traffic collisions continue at the urban signalized crossroads [12]. As a result, the urban signalized intersection was identified as the most hazardous area in the road network [1], [17]. The author of this paper [18] asserts that the human, vehicle, weather, and roadway elements were the four main components that contributed to the occurrence of traffic accidents.…”

Two-thirds of vehicle accidents in Malaysia occurred at the straight type of roads, followed by intersection-type roads. Despite the deployment of traffic lights on the road, accidents still occur which are caused by illegal maneuvers, speeding or misjudgment of other’s actions. Hence, motivated by the lack of previous research regarding causes of accidents on intersectional roads, this study aims to observe the pattern of the vehicles’ speed and turning angle during the right turn after the traffic stop at the intersection road. To obtain these parameters, video samples of vehicles at two types of intersections were obtained and analyzed via YOLOV7 and DeepSORT. The two road intersections researched are four-legged intersection and three-legged intersection. 153 and 35 vehicle samples were collected from these types of road intersections, respectively. It was observed that 78 and 75 vehicles exit towards the nearest and furthest lanes at four-leg controlled crossings on divided roads. While, at a single-lane to a dual carriageway road intersection, 26 and 9 vehicles exit towards the nearest and furthest lanes, respectively. From the research, 16.52 - 17.53 km/h and 67.57°-73.33° are the most optimal turning speeds and angles respectively for vehicles at four-leg controlled crossings. Whereas 14.48 - 15.51 km/h and 144.77° - 154.403° are the most optimal turning speeds and angles respectively for vehicles at a single-lane to a dual carriageway road intersection.
