Abstract
Pedestrian is growing concern, especially in supporting the use of public transportation, because walking is an activity towards and leaving public transportation facilities. Pedestrians are the most vulnerable road users, so the safety and comfort of walking need to be considered. In Indonesia, there were 486.295 accidents with 787.916 victims and 1,1 Trillion material losses in 2013 to 2017. The data also explained that 16.2% of the total pedestrian crashes, which is 96% occurred when pedestrians were walking in areas without zebra crossing and 4% were walking in zebra crossing areas. In the city of Magelang, 27,4% of traffic fatalities were pedestrian fatalities. This amount is the highest number of all cities in Central Java Province (Magelang, Pekalongan, Salatiga, Semarang, Surakarta, and Tegal). There were 175 data of pedestrian crashes with 177 pedestrian victims, which 21% are fatalities. Based on the age of pedestrians, pedestrians are divided into 3 age categories: 0-17 years old are children, 18-65 years old are adults, more than 65 years old are elderly. Factors that significantly affect injury severity pedestrians are days of the week (weekends / weekdays), time of day (night / daylight), lighting condition (dark / light), weather condition (rain / clear), road surface condition (wet / dry), gender (male / female), Pedestrian maneuver before crash ( crossing street / walking along roadway), crash location (road / intersection). This study will be assumed to use a binomial ordered probit model with regard to age at pedestrian accidents. This study will be analyzed using R software to determine the probability of factors affecting pedestrian injury severity.
