    The document is a test paper for a course on Accident Analysis and Prevention. It asks students to propose two road safety measures based on the Haddon Matrix to improve road crashes involving buses. Some proposed measures include: 1) Requiring bus drivers to check vehicles before trips and get proper rest to prevent fatigue, and improving bus safety features and crash worthiness like seatbelts and airbags. 2) Conducting road safety audits on straight roads to improve road furniture, and providing reflective road studs and guardrails to improve visibility and safety at night. These measures aim to reduce human errors and improve vehicle safety during crashes to prevent injuries.
