Abstract :
This paper aims to analyze and evaluate the factors affecting road safety. Based on the main influence: people, vehicles, roads and management, using Structural Equation Model (SEM) principles, the Road Safety Structure Model (RSSM) was established. In this article, not only the factors that affect urban road safety were assessed based on the structural model, but the relationship between the factors was analyzed. Our work will be of important practical significance and research value for the road traffic safety management department.
