Abstract
Traffic enforcement is one of the 3E's of traffic safety measures. Traffic enforcement has been reported to reduce traffic accidents worldwide; however, significant regional differences exist in its effectiveness. This study summarizes the history of the effects of traffic enforcement on reducing traffic accidents in Japan. In particular, scientific approaches and more efficient enforcement since 2000 have been described in the research results. Although the implementation of data-based PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Action) has steadily reduced the number of traffic fatalities, further reductions are expected through the use of new technologies such as artificial intelligence.
期刊介绍：
First published in 1977 as an international journal sponsored by the International Association of Traffic and Safety Sciences, IATSS Research has contributed to the dissemination of interdisciplinary wisdom on ideal mobility, particularly in Asia. IATSS Research is an international refereed journal providing a platform for the exchange of scientific findings on transportation and safety across a wide range of academic fields, with particular emphasis on the links between scientific findings and practice in society and cultural contexts. IATSS Research welcomes submission of original research articles and reviews that satisfy the following conditions: 1.Relevant to transportation and safety, and the multiple impacts of transportation systems on security, human health, and the environment. 2.Contains important policy and practical implications based on scientific evidence in the applicable academic field. In addition to welcoming general submissions, IATSS Research occasionally plans and publishes special feature sections and special issues composed of invited articles addressing specific topics.
