Abstract
EXTENDED ABSTRACT: While pedestrians’ fatality stands for 23% of total mortality, the share of pedestrians’ fatality distribution for various road areas is totally different from the other road users. Meanwhile female pedestrians assumed to burden more vulnerability according to some factors. This study attempts to test hypotheses related to female pedestrian casualties as per their location of death and other factors like age, day time and visibility (clothing color).
