Author(s): | Zhou, Huaguo; Rouholamin, Mahdi Pour |
Subject(s): | Wrong-Way Driving
Crash Contributing Factors Countermeasures Traffic Safety Freeways |
Abstract: | Each year, hundreds of fatal wrong-way driving (WWD) crashes occur across the United States, and thousands of injuries are reported in traffic crashes caused by wrong-way drivers. Although WWD crashes have been a concern since the advent of access-controlled, divided roadways, the problem persists despite efforts to address it over time. The objective of this book is to provide guidance for implementing traditional and advanced safety countermeasures to achieve a significant reduction in the number of WWD incidents and crashes on freeways. |
