Accident Classification System (GDV)<br />
Type 4 : Special cases<br />
Note:<br />
An <strong>accident</strong> is also a type 4 <strong>accident</strong> (pedestrian <strong>accident</strong>) if the conflict causing pedestrian was not hit. This includes <strong>accident</strong>s, where the conflict was<br />
caused by pedestrians that were e.g. playing, getting in or out <strong>of</strong> a car, but were not walking in lateral direction.<br />
If at a crossing a pedestrian crosses the access road <strong>of</strong> a turning <strong>of</strong>f vehicle <strong>and</strong> this results in a conflict, then it<br />
is a type 2 <strong>accident</strong> (turning <strong>of</strong>f <strong>accident</strong>)<br />
If such a conflict occurs at a crossing with traffic lights – even with a turning <strong>of</strong>f signal – it is also a type 2<br />
<strong>accident</strong> (turning <strong>of</strong>f <strong>accident</strong>)<br />
If somebody is getting out <strong>of</strong> the car <strong>and</strong> this results in a conflict between this pedestrian <strong>and</strong> another vehicle, it<br />
is a type 4 <strong>accident</strong> (pedestrian <strong>accident</strong>)<br />
