Surface transportation system is developing very fast in China and the number of vehicles is increasing quickly as well. This development creates a lot of problems on traffic safety and the number of accident is also increasing. In this paper, we made deep analysis of different possible causes of safety problems through three aspects: the traffic environment and infrastructure, in-vehicle information system design and the characteristics of drivers. There are many factors in each aspects may contribute to the transportation safety problems. Problems with infrastructure design and traffic design contribute over 50% of the traffic accident. Another important factor is that people has very little traffic safety concept and very weak on understanding the important of right behavior on the road. This paper has pointed the urgent needs to study the human factors in road and transportation system and vehicle HMI design, as there are very few such studies available in literature based on Chinese situation. The paper also proposed the needs to develop proactive educational system that can promote driver's understanding of traffic safety and to take the right action during drive.
中国地面交通系统发展迅速，车辆数量也在快速增长。这种发展给交通安全带来了诸多问题，事故数量也在增加。本文从交通环境与基础设施、车内信息系统设计以及驾驶员特性三个方面，对安全问题的不同可能成因进行了深入分析。每个方面都有许多因素可能导致交通安全问题。基础设施设计和交通设计问题导致的交通事故占比超过50%。另一个重要因素是人们的交通安全意识淡薄，对道路上正确行为的重要性认识不足。本文指出迫切需要研究道路和交通系统中的人为因素以及车辆人机界面设计，因为基于中国情况的此类研究在文献中很少见。本文还提出需要开发积极主动的教育系统，以促进驾驶员对交通安全的理解，并在驾驶过程中采取正确行动。
