A form is proposed for collecting information about the geometric elements of roads when assessing their accident rate, which, in addition to the accuracy of the values, has the lowest level of labor and financial costs. This contributes to the implementation of the road assessment principles in the activities of road services according to the «Method of accident rates» worked out by Professor V. F. Babkov. Herewith, in order to establish the sequence of restructuring hazardous areas, it is proposed to additionally take into account the severity of accidents by means of the correction factors developed by the authors.
