im trying to produce a relative distribution graph for the number of road accidents and the time of day. originally ,i was using a graph where the time segments were 'morning (6 AM - 12 PM), afternoon (12 PM - 6 PM), evening (6 PM - 12 AM), and night (12 AM - 6 AM) '  but now i want to adjust the time segments to   Morning (Peak): 7:00 AM - 10:00 AM Late Morning: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM Afternoon (Off-peak): 12:00 PM - 2:59 PM school&work: 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM  (this is the time people would be picking up their kids from school and people whould be ending work) Evening (Off-peak): 7:00 PM - 11:59 PM Late Night: 12:00 AM - 4:59 AM both graphs with these two different sets of time segments are linked to this question 1)i wish to know for a relative distribution, if its okay that my hour ranges are no longer equal like they were with the yellow graph and also if its okay that i have left out 5AM-7AM on my graph or is it important to include all hours of the day? 2) what analysis would you make with the new graph (i am investigating the effect of the time of day on the number of road accidents)?

Question

im trying to produce a relative distribution graph for the number of road accidents and the time of day. originally ,i was using a graph where the time segments were 'morning (6 AM - 12 PM), afternoon (12 PM - 6 PM), evening (6 PM - 12 AM), and night (12 AM - 6 AM) '  but now i want to adjust the time segments to  

  1. Morning (Peak): 7:00 AM - 10:00 AM
  2. Late Morning: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM
  3. Afternoon (Off-peak): 12:00 PM - 2:59 PM
  4. school&work: 3:00 PM - 7:00 PM  (this is the time people would be picking up their kids from school and people whould be ending work)
  5. Evening (Off-peak): 7:00 PM - 11:59 PM
  6. Late Night: 12:00 AM - 4:59 AM

both graphs with these two different sets of time segments are linked to this question

1)i wish to know for a relative distribution, if its okay that my hour ranges are no longer equal like they were with the yellow graph and also if its okay that i have left out 5AM-7AM on my graph or is it important to include all hours of the day?

2) what analysis would you make with the new graph (i am investigating the effect of the time of day on the number of road accidents)?
