Table 26: Differences in Crashes per Million Entering Vehicles by Type of Injury and Type of Crash

Reports on the differences in crashes by frequency and percent increase/decrease and million entering vehicle crash rates by type of injury and type of crash from the before time period to the after time period. While there was a very slight increase of 1.1% in total crashes for the RLC intersections there was a 9.4% decrease in comparison intersection crashes. For both Red Light Camera intersections and comparison intersections there were large decreases in injury crashes (RLC intersections -26.1% and comparison intersections -37.3%) and smaller increases in PDO crashes (RLC intersections +12.7% and comparison intersections +1.7%). There were large decreases (-54.0%) in angle crashes at RLC intersections, a smaller decrease in angle crashes at comparison intersections (-29.3%), a 10.4% increase in RLC rear end crashes, and rear end crashes for comparison intersection decreased by 3.6%.
