In terms of carfollowing critical condition,the characteristics of freeway rearend mechanism was analyzed.The four kinds of situation of freeway rearend collision were studied and the quantified index of rearend collision risk was inferred according to the rearend collision kinetic theory.Considering the random effect of driver’s reaction time,brake deceleration,the Monte Carlo method was used to calculate the value of rearend collision risk.The scope of threshold value was then obtained by fuzzy clustering method.The results can provide the theoretical foundation for early warning of freeway driving safety.
