Abstract

Traffic accidents remain a serious issue in the field of transportation. The high number of accidents is often attributed to risky driving behavior, which not only endangers the driver but also other road users and the surrounding environment. In Palangka Raya alone, 303 traffic accident cases were recorded throughout 2024. This study aims to identify behavioral factors contributing to traffic accidents, determine the most dominant factor, and evaluate the extent of the influence of driver behavior on accident occurrence. The research employs multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS. Based on the analysis, driver behavior variables are categorized into four factors: compliance (X1), personality (X2), skills (X3), and knowledge (X4). The most dominant driver behavior identified was “Frequently driving at high speed (60–70 km/h).” In the multiple linear regression test, the variable with the highest positive coefficient change was X1.4 with a value of 0.221 toward Y1, while the variable with the greatest negative coefficient was X3.2 with a value of -0.224. For variable Y2, the largest positive coefficient was found in X4.1 (0.122), and the largest negative coefficient was in X2.3 (-0.402). Keywords: accident, driver behavior, regression, traffic safety
