road users who infringed the traffic law, for instance driving faster
than limited speed, driving carelessly, getting drunk during driving
etc.
2. Road Defect
One part of road accident has been caused by road/bridge
infrastructure, which is not yet in the appropriate safety to standard,
for examples potholes in the road.
3. Vehicle Defect
Vehicles have caused road accident because their owners did not
properly maintain and regularly inspect the vehicle during the
operation. So the road accident occurred when brake failure,
tire blowout, power steering failure, headlight failure.
