The State of Qatar started to use red-light cameras in 2007 at key signalized intersections and the rate of installation has subsequently increased. In 2017, 19. 2% of signalized intersections are equipped with red-light cameras. In many cases, the cameras are not installed on all approaches to the intersections. The purpose of this study is to compare the red-light running violations on approaches with and without red-light running enforcement cameras at the same intersections. Actual field observations were used in this study. Different variables were investigated, including the day of the week, time of day, traffic volume, the possibility of glare on an approach, and the lengths of the yellow and all-red times. A regression tree model was used to explain the characteristics associated with the violations. The results showed that the number of violations on low-volume approaches was five times higher than on high-volume approaches. The results also showed that the presence of the cameras significantly lowered red-light running violations. High-volume approaches without cameras had an approximately eight times higher rate of violations than high-volume approaches with cameras. The analysis also showed that bringing the all-red interval closer to the values recommended by the Institute of Transportation Engineers formula may bring down the rates of violations for low-volume approaches. As with any observational data mining method, the study could benefit from a larger sample size. The method used in the study was effective and is easily transferable to other locations. The results of this study can be used in developing new strategies to improve safety at signalized intersections.

【摘要】随着我国教育事业的不断发展,越来越多的学校开始重视学生真正的体育教育,而这份对体育的重视不仅仅是素质教育,更是对学生在学习生涯中的身体健康问题的重要保障。为此,针对和谐教学法在中职学校体育教学中的运用研究就显得尤为重要了。体育素质教育是学生教育的重要组成部分,理应得到教育界以及社会各界的重视,同时也包括父母的责任和义务。本文主要针对中职学校学生受到的体育教学进行研究,并就和谐教育法在其中的
