Red-Light Running Behavior of Non-Motor Vehicles Based on Survival Analysis

The red-light running behavior of non-motor vehicles and its influential factors were presented. The waiting times of non-motor vehicles and the data of the influential variables were collected by video. Non-parameter method of survival analysis theory was used to model the waiting time. The results show that the violation inclination of most riders increases with the increasing waiting duration. About 32% of riders are at high risk of violation and low waiting time to cross the intersections. About 15% of riders are generally non-risk takers who can obey the traffic rules after waiting for 95 seconds. In addition, electric bikes may wait shorter time than common bicycles. The waiting time of riders would decrease with the smaller number of other riders that are waiting for a green when arrives, as well as the larger number of other riders that are crossing against the red light when arrives.
