... 51 Nbi = predicted number of total intersection-related crashes per year for base conditions. CMF1r CMF2r … CMFnr = CMFs for various road segment features (1, 2, …, n)
From page 52...
... 52 procedure also has the advantage of overcoming the regression-to-the-mean (RTM) bias since the models and CMFs are estimated using cross-sectional data; RTM only affects before-after studies or repeated measurements.
From page 53...

From page 54...
... 54 INTERACTION AMONG FACTOR EFFECTS The safety prediction methods in Part C of the HSM are formulated using multiplicative CMFs. This formulation assumes that the CMFs are independent of each other.
From page 55...
