  In this study, we present both data mining and information visualization
techniques to identify accident-prone areas, most accident-prone time, day, and
month. Also, we surveyed among volunteers to understand which visualization
techniques help non-expert users to understand the findings better. Findings of
this study suggest that most accidents occur in the dusk (i.e., between 6 to 7
pm), and on Fridays. Results also suggest that most accidents occurred in
October, which is a popular month for tourism. These findings are consistent
with social information and can help policymakers, residents, tourists, and
other law enforcement agencies. This study can be extended to draw broader
implications.
