Today, transportation is a category that every person has a direct relationship with, and along with the growth and development of cities, the need for public services and facilities has also increased. On the other hand, due to the increase in population, the road transport network, as well as vehicles, which have caused serious transportation problems such as accidents, traffic and traffic violations, it is necessary for the government's investment policy to prioritize the use of solutions in order to reduce accidents and traffic violations. In this research, an attempt was made to investigate one of the speed management methods to reduce traffic violations and accidents in the main transit axes. In this research, the Zanjan-Khormadre transit axis and vice versa was investigated as the focus of the study for the effect of speed control cameras on the prevention of traffic violations and the reduction of road accidents, and SPSS software was used to analyze the data. To investigate the relationship between violations, accidents and speed control cameras, the significance of Pearson's correlation coefficient and linear regression was evaluated. Speed is in the mentioned axis, and also 73% of the reason for the reduction of traffic violations is the increase of speed control cameras, on the other hand, 88% of the number of accidents related to speed depends on the number of violations caused by speed. As a result, the existence of speed control cameras can be effective as one of the most important parts of speed management in all used programs.

Traffic accidents usually cause not only significant human casualties, but also significant economic losses. Therefore, the prevention of traffic accidents to maintain public safety and reduce economic losses is the concern of the countries of the world. Macro-level road safety studies provide the possibility of identifying influential factors that play an important role in creating safety policies for vehicle drivers. The development of appropriate statistical methods for the analysis of traffic accident data is a fundamental line of research in the field of traffic safety analysis. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effective factors in the occurrence of traffic accidents in accident-prone areas within the city. Also, appropriate solutions were presented to prevent accidents caused by traffic violations, which is one of the important parameters. The studied area is from Imam Hussain Boulevard to Navab Crossroad, which was extracted based on the available information, including the number of accidents with damage, injury and death, and traffic violations in a 4-year period (2019-2022) in the Highway Police. SPSS software was used to analyze the data. Due to the small amount of data, Pearson's correlation coefficient was used to measure the relationship, and due to the acceptance of linear relationship between research variables, linear regression was used to find the relationship equation. The results showed that 82% of the causes of accidents in the mentioned area are traffic violations. And most of the main causes of accidents are, in order, failure to pay attention to the front 41%, failure to respect the right of way 28%, sudden change of direction 16%, failure to observe the horizontal distance 11% and failure to observe the longitudinal distance 4%. Also, the increase in accidents can be prevented by providing solutions such as police presence, law enforcement, installation of traffic control cameras, road network calming program, and accident hazard training.
