المستخلص: ان الانتقال من مكان الى اخر هو ضرورة حياتية لاغنى للانسان عنها , وان هذا الانتقال يتم في الغالب عن طريق مركبة يقودها الانسان في ظل حركة مرورية بالغة التعقيد والازدحام , لذلك اصبحت حركة الانسان ماشيا اوراكبا محفوفة بالمخاطر والمتمثلة بالحوادث المرورية التي | The transportation from one place to another is an indispensible fact. This movement is done mostly via a vehicle driven by human in a very complex traffic movement and congestions. Therefore, the movement of man whether pedestrian or riding vehicle is one of the most serious problems that are faced by the modern societies for the economic, social they inflict as well as the waste of the human and material resources. The province of Alkarkh suffers from high rates of traffic accidents as it is part of the center of Baghdad, in addition to being an entrance for most of the southern governorates. This will result increase the density of the traffic movement in a manner not consistent with the capability of the streets to comprehend that number of cars. That led to the great number of traffic congestion and traffic jam. Also, the big number of checkpoints spreading in the streets is a result of the accidents. Hence, the aim of the study is know the size of the traffic accident problem in the province and determine the degree of danger through classification, analysis and following the statistics related to various types, and to know the most dominant types, so that we can realize the most outstanding location in which accidents occur. This is because the scientific and subjective realization of the spatial distribution and its time - based trends is regarded as application contribution to know the effects resulting from traffic accidents and the followed procedures to stop them. The study comes up to a group of findings such as : • The number of traffic accidents is increasing in the period of study (2006 - 2015). The highest level was in 2015 in (382) traffic accidents out of the total number of traffic accidents (3064) accidents. • It was clear from the study that numerous natural and human causes lurk behind the traffic accidents. However, the basic elements causing them are man (the user of road), the vehicle, the road, but man with his negligence and violation of the traffic rules is considered the main reason behind the traffic accidents, especially the driver. The percentage of (%49.3) out of the total number of accidents are caused by men, whereas the pedestrians, vehicle and the road caused (%9.9, %22.6, %11.7) of the traffic accidents respectively. • The variables (population size, number of cars, climatic elements) are shown to have effect in traffic accidents. However, the most effective of these variables were (population size, number of cars) in the province. • The study affirms that the problem of traffic accidents has a big economic and social dimension. It has a clear influence on the national GDP, as it is clear in the cost of these traffic accidents (22038000) $ during the period of study(2006 - 2015).• The weak procedures followed to stop the traffic accidents whether related with the traffic awareness, or the geometric dimensions of the roads and the cars, the sanitary, social factors and the governmental politics
