Evaluation and Ranking of Stats Based on the Level of Road Safety Using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA )

In addition to loss of life, road accidents result in the loss of national funds and have destructive effects on the country's development. Therefore, measures should be taken to reduce the number of accidents and casualties. The main goal of this research is to use the data envelopment analysis model in order to measure the efficiency of the country's provinces and rank them based on the level of road safety. This research was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive in nature. The method of data collection was documents and by examining the data of the General Directorate of Highways and Road Transport and the country's road police.
