More and more complicated driving environments and vehicle interactions have caused more and more crashes in China. This paper presents a method to analyze fundamental attributes for severe crashes on mountainous highways using clustering techniques. Firstly, the relationship between traffic accidents and driver behavior was discussed. Secondly, traffic accident data were collected and classified according to different crash types. Thirdly, cluster techniques were used to analyze the data and driver behavior. The results illustrated that there were four key driver behavior factors contributing to crashes on mountainous roads. These typical driver behavior factors could be used to develop effective countermeasures against traffic crashes for various scenarios in different driving environments.
