- Аннотация: We investigate the impact of weather conditions on the number and severity of road accidents in Moscow, Russia. Both seasonal and weekly variations in the number and severity of road accidents are considered. Two seasons of the year - the warm season (from May to September) and the cold season (from October to April) - are considered separately. Weather phenomena and meteorological parameters that trigger road accidents during both warm and cold seasons are identified. More meteorological events influencing an increase in the number and severity of road accidents are revealed for cold season rather than for warm months. The number and severity of road accidents are correlated with the weather conditions on a daily basis. In cold months, weather factors contribute to about 90% and in warm months – to about 80% of all the “emergency” and “super-emergency” days when the number of accidents or severity indicator is exceeding a seasonal average for this day of the week. Additionally, the weather conditions on days with serious road accidents are examined over a 23-year period. Total 82% of all the serious road accidents during the cold season and 61% during the warm one occur in difficult weather conditions. The most significant weather factors are found to be precipitation (especially heavy snowfall) in winter, as well as heavy rain and heat in summer. The bright sun, which serves as a factor reducing the driver's vision, leads to increasing in the total number of road accidents, but does not influence on their severity.
