Question
Speed cameras (SC) are used to reduce the risk of
accidents in accident-prone zones in metropolitan cities. To study the effectiveness of
speed cameras, transport engineers would like to compare the average number of
accidents in junction A (with SC) and junction B (without SC). The number of
accidents in 105 weeks in two junctions are provided below.
Junction A
with SC
Junction B
without SC
Number of Accidents 01 2 3 4 5 6 7+
Observed frequency 40 20 15 16 10 3 1 0
Number of Accidents 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7+
Observed frequency 25 24 18 15 18 41 0
