Praise for the Second Edition:
The second edition introduces an especially broad set of statistical methods ... As a lecturer in both transportation and marketing research, I find this book an excellent textbook for advanced undergraduate, Master's and Ph.D. students, covering topics from simple descriptive statistics to complex Bayesian models. ... It is one of the few books that cover an extensive set of statistical methods needed for data analysis in transportation. The book offers a wealth of examples from the transportation field. --The American Statistician

About the Author
Simon Washington is Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of Queensland.
He is recognized internationally for his contributions in the fields of behavioral econometrics
applied in the areas of transport and urban planning, transport safety and risk across
all travel modes, and travel behavior. He is Associate Editor or Editorial Advisory Board
Member on six leading international transport journals (Korean Journal of Transportation
Engineering; Analytic Methods in Accident Research; Accident Analysis and Prevention; Journal of
Transport and Health; Transportation Research Part A; and Journal of Sustainable Transportation).
He has authored or co-authored more than 100 peer-reviewed journal articles and a second
edition of a textbook adopted in over 20 countries, and 6 book chapters. He has been lead
investigator on more than $26 million on externally supported research and has secured
nationally competitive research grants in Australia including the Australian Research
Council, the National Health and Medical Research Council, and the Cooperative Research
Center, and in the United States from the National Academy of Sciences, the National
Highway Traffic and Safety Administration, and the Federal Highway Administration.
Prior to joining the University of Queensland he served on the faculties of the Queensland
University of Technology, University of California Berkeley, Arizona State University,
the University of Arizona, and the Georgia Institute of Technology. He has been visiting
professor at Ajou University (South Korea), University of Sydney, and Loughborough
University (UK).
Professor Matthew Karlaftis passed away unexpectedly in June 2014. He did extensive
work in the areas of urban transportation, transportation planning and operations, and
emergency response. He was a coauthor of an international bestselling book on transportation
econometrics and statistics, two textbooks on transportation planning and
public transportation, many book chapters, more than 100 publications in peer-reviewed
journals, and many publications in conference proceedings, all highly cited worldwide.
He participated in more than 45 national and European research projects as the principal
or co-principal investigator. He was deeply involved in editorial activities. He served as
the editor in chief for Transportation Research Part C, European editor of ASCE's Journal of
Transportation Engineering, associate editor of ASCE's Journal of Infrastructure Systems, and
an editorial board member for eight other journals. He was the recipient of the Fulbright
Scholar Grant (2006-2007), the ASCE Walter L. Huber Civil Engineering Research Prize
(2005), the TRB ABJ80 Committee on Statistical Methods Best Paper Award (2009), and the
ASCE State-of-the-Art Paper Award (2011). He served on many technical committees and
was a member of a variety of professional organizations and honor societies in Greece and
the United States. He had a long association with the Hellenic Institute of Transportation
Engineers where he served as vice president (2010-2012) and president (2012-2014).
Fred Mannering is Professor of Civil and Environ mental Engineering (with a courtesy
appointment in Economics) at the University of South Florida. He received his undergraduate
degree from the University of Saskatchewan, masters from Purdue University, and
doctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Prior to joining the University
of South Florida, he was an Assistant Professor at the Pennsylvania State University,
Professor and Department Chair at the University of Washington, and School Head and
Charles Pankow Professor at Purdue University. His research interests are in the application
of econometric and statistical methods to the analysis of highway safety, transportation
economics, vehicle demand, travel behavior and a variety of other engineering-related
problems. He has published extensively with over 140 journal articles and two books:
Principles of Highway Engineering and Traffic Analysis and Statistical and Econometric Methods
for Transportation Data Analysis. He has received numerous awards and recognitions
including ASCE's Wilbur S. Smith Award (2005), James Laurie Prize (2009), and Arthur
M. Wellington Prize (2009). He has been acknowledged as a Web-of-Science Highly Cited
Researcher (2019). Dr. Mannering is currently Editor-in-Chief (and founding Editor) of the
Elsevier Science journal Analytic Methods in Accident Research and previous Editor-in-Chief
(2003-2012) and current Distinguished Editorial Board Member of the Elsevier Science
journal Transportation Research Part B: Methodological. He also serves on the editorial boards
of Accident Analysis and Prevention and Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies.
Panagiotis Anastasopoulos is Associate Professor and Stephen E. Still Chair of
Transportation Engineering, in the Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental
Engineering at the University at Buffalo, The State University of New York. He is also
the Director of the Stephen Still Institute for Sustainable Transportation and Logistics
at University at Buffalo. He received his bachelor's degree from the Athens University
of Economics and Business, and his master's and doctorate from Purdue University. His
research interests include statistical and econometric modeling of engineering problems,
transportation safety, planning for flying cars, urban air mobility, infrastructure systems,
crisis management, transportation economics, and travel behavior. In these areas, he has
published over 100 papers, books/book chapters, and reports. He is Associate Editor (and
founding Editorial Board Member) of Elsevier Science's journal Analytic Methods in Accident
Research, Associate Editor of the ASCE Journal of Infrastructure Systems and of the journal
