Autonomous Vehicles (AVs) are being promoted as an emerging technology with the potential to improve traffic efficiency and safety. However, the scarcity of publicly available AV crash data contributes to a limited understanding of safety issues for deploying AVs. To gain a deeper understanding of the factors contributing to AV crashes, this study created a unique dataset by combining 445 intersection AV crashes from the California Department of Motor Vehicles with detailed roadway geometric and traffic characteristic data. To address the issue of imbalanced data, the Borderline synthetic minority oversampling technique (BL-SMOTE) was utilized in this study. A framework for analyzing AV crash types at intersections was also developed using the Categorical gradient boosting (Catboost) and Bayesian networks (BNs) models. The results show that inappropriate vehicle maneuvers, such as sudden lane changes or speed control, can increase the likelihood of an AV being involved in a sideswipe crash. Additionally, in scenarios where the AADT of the major road is lower, AVs are more prone to rear-end crashes when proceeding. These findings can provide valuable insights for creating safety management strategies in different situations and improve the development of innovative car warning technologies, such as rear-end collision warnings.
