in-lane street hawking is the intermittent entry of signalized intersections by traders to sell groceries to drivers and passengers. studies have shown that hawkers get exposed to traffic injuries but the lack of quantitative analysis of their lane entry and exit behaviors in signalized intersections makes it difficult to improve traffic safety. this study analyzes the significant predictors of in-lane street hawkers’ (1) lane entry within 30 s after the red signal illumination, (2) lane exit within 30 s after the green signal illumination, and (3) probability of getting injuries during the green signal time. Drone-based trajectory data were collected from a selected signalized intersection in accra, Ghana. a Weibull accelerated failure time duration model incorporating Gamma frailty was used to evaluate hawkers’ behaviors. Overall, the majority of hawkers exhibited red-light running behaviors exposing them to traffic injuries. an increase in traffic speed, especially beyond 20 km/h, exposed hawkers to injury risks significantly. Notably, hawkers’ lane entry decreased significantly as the traffic speed increased. their lane exit duration was significantly predicted by the queue lengths and traffic volumes. accordingly, safety practitioners can enhance traffic regulation and control methods in addition to pro-poor social interventions to demotivate hawking at signalized intersections.
