Abstract

Motor vehicle accidents occur frequently in Magelang. According to the data from the Magelang Police Traffic Unit, the number of traffic accidents in Magelang Regency during 2017 to 2019 was 2,684 cases. Each year there is an increase in an average of 100 cases. This study tries to look at this fact from the perspective of the time and place of traffic accidents. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between the time and place of the incident and the traffic accident rate. This study uses primary data and secondary data obtained from traffic accident place and the data available at the Magelang Police. This research reveals that during the effective work time, between 06.00-12.00 and 12.00-18.00 WIB or from 06.00-18.00 WIB, the number of motor vehicle accidents is higher in Magelang. According to the location, the number of motor vehicle accidents is higher on busy and straight roads than on winding and deviated roads. From this research it can be concluded that the accident number in Magelang is higher at certain times and places.
