Book Description
This action plan addresses the short-term countermeasures and recommendations developed by safety professionals and practitioners from Federal, State, local and private sector organizations attending the Symposium on Effective Highway Accident Countermeasures, June 1990, Washington, D.C. It focuses on 11 priority short-term countermeasures deemed to have high payoff within the next two years. These are grouped under five categories: Pedestrian Safety Improvements; Driver Behavior and Performance; Roadway and Roadside Safety; Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety; and Corridor Safety Improvement Programs.

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The guide is a basic reference to assist State Highway Safety Offices (SHSOs) in selecting effective, evidence-based countermeasures for traffic safety problem areas. These areas include: - Alcohol- and Drug-Impaired Driving; - Seat Belts and Child Restraints; - Speeding and Speed Management; - Distracted Driving; - Motorcycle Safety; - Young Drivers; - Older Drivers; - Pedestrian Safety; - Bicycle Safety; and - Drowsy Driving. The guide: - describes major strategies and countermeasures that are relevant to SHSOs; - summarizes strategy/countermeasure use, effectiveness, costs, and implementation time; and - provides references to the most important research summaries and individual studies.

Integrated Program for the Interactive Highway Safety Design Model (IHSDM) and Safety Research

Book Description
The objective of this focus group study was to identify driver attitudes and behaviors related to intersection safety and to assess the likely impacts of new or existing infrastructure-based technologies/countermeasures. Four focus groups were conducted at each of three test sites, Washington DC, Chicago, IL, and Seattle, WA. At each site, the four groups corresponded to the age/gender characteristics identified as important to this project. The four groups were: 18-35 year old female drivers only; 18-35 year old male drivers only; 35-55 year old drivers of both genders; 65+ year old drivers of both genders. At each site, the focus groups took place over two separate evenings, with two focus groups conducted per evening. A total of 119 individuals participated in the focus groups. The effort focused on identifying driver attitudes and behaviors with respect to four intersection scenarios: (1) red light running, (2) left turns at busy intersections, (3) turning left onto a major road with moderate traffic, and (4) rear end crashes. For each of these four scenarios, results and conclusions relevant to the following key quesitons are developed and presented: What are drivers most likely to do in this scenario? Why do drivers engage in these behaviors? What engineering countermeasures have the most promise for improving traffic safety?--Technical report documentation page.
