A penalized-likelihood approach to characterizing bridge-related crashes in New Jersey.

CONCLUSION: This model is an appropriate tool for predicting the impact of all the confounding variables on the probability of bridge-related crashes while also considering the rareness of the event. Based on the obtained odds ratio, the various effects of the identified variables are discussed, and recommendations made regarding countermeasures policymakers can establish to reduce the number of these crashes in New Jersey.
