Abstract

Railway level crossing accidents constitute a complex transportation safety issue influenced by various geometric, operational, human, and infrastructure-related factors. Accident data at each crossing are generally in the form of count data dominated by zero values, making them difficult to model optimally using conventional Poisson or Negative Binomial regression models. This study aims to model the number of accidents at railway level crossings in the DAOP 7 region using the Zero-Inflated Poisson (ZIP) and Zero-Inflated Negative Binomial (ZINB) approaches. The predictor variables include train frequency, road width, road–rail intersection gradients on both the right and left sides, type of crossing, presence of an Early Warning System (EWS), road status, and type of crossing gate. The analysis was conducted using SPSS and Stata software, involving stages of zero proportion examination, estimation of ZIP and ZINB regression models, and selection of the best model based on the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC), Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), and log-likelihood values. The results indicate that the ZINB regression model provides a better fit compared to the ZIP model. Factors that significantly influence the number of accidents at railway level crossings in the DAOP 7 region include train frequency, right-side gradient, left-side gradient, type of crossing, presence of an Early Warning System, and type of crossing gate.
