Abstract:
Abstract The context in which this study is conducted is represented by the need to improve road safety at T-intersections, which can be visibility-critical locations and of the risk of accidents. Therefore, this study is important to identify and solve potential problems related to sight distance in road intersections. Case studies on sight distance in intersections are an effective way to assess the impact of the factors that influence it on road safety. Currently, the three-dimensional study allows us to analyze the visibility in detail according to the standards and obtain the sight distan

Abstract:
The current AASHTO policy for sight distance at Stop-controlled intersections is based on a model of the acceleration performance of a minor-road vehicle turning left or right onto a major road and the deceleration performance of the following major road vehicle. An alternative intersection sight distance model based on gap acceptance is developed and quantified. Field studies that were performed to determine the critical gaps appropriate for use in sight distance design are described. It is recommended that the sight distance along the major road for a passenger car at a Stop-controlled inter

Abstract:
Current methods for evaluating level of service at two-way stop-controlled intersections do not account for safety considerations. One of the most important factors influencing intersection safety is the availability of adequate sight distance. However, current recommended intersection sight distance criteria do not explicitly consider variability in traffic composition, vehicle characteristics, pavement conditions, or driver characteristics such as perception-reaction time and minimum gap acceptance. Research was therefore undertaken to develop and validate a method where the safety of a two-

Abstract:
Recent road accident statistics indicate that more than 30% of accidents occur at intersections. Whereas, total percentage of intersections present in the entire road network is less than 2%. From design point of view, one way to ensure reduction of accidents at intersections is to provide sufficient sight distance and clear sight triangles. However, it was observed that even when minimum sight distance is provided, it does not ensure non-occurrence of accidents because available sight distance at intersection changes with time. Hence there is a need to understand the effect of sight distance

Abstract:
This paper proposes an automated framework that utilizes Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point cloud data to map and detect road obstacles that impact drivers’ field of view at urban intersections. The framework facilitates the simulation of a driver’s field of vision to estimate the blockage percentage as they approach an intersection. Furthermore, a collision analysis is conducted to examine the relationship between poor visibility and safety. The visibility assessment was used to determine the blockage percentage as a function of intersection control type. The safety assessment indicate

Abstract:
Short sight distances at rural intersections can result in reduced safety including drivers choosing smaller gaps between oncoming vehicles (Yan & Richards, 2010). Conversely, increased sight distances may result in improved driver confidence, but not safety as seen at rail crossings (Ward & Wilde, 1996). Thus, simply increasing sight distances may not result in linear gains in safety. Establishing appropriate lower and upper-visibility limits at rural intersections will minimize operational costs for clearing and grubbing labor and may reduce serious injury and fatal crashes by promot

Abstract:
In urban agglomerations, signalized intersections are common. However, in traffic management, safety-focused strategies are often sacrificed for traffic efficiency by allowing simultaneous multiple conflicting movements. We identified this issue by analyzing the most dangerous signalized intersections in several Polish cities. Our research evaluated whether obstructed sight distances between major and minor traffic streams could be a significant problem at these intersections. To achieve this, we employed existing models of visibility analysis related to stopping sight distance. We determined

Abstract:
The intersection sight distance (ISD) design presented by AASHTO is based on extreme values of the component design variables such as design speed, perception–reaction time (a high percentile), and friction coefficient (a low percentile). A reliability method is presented, based on AASHTO, that does not rely on extreme values but instead considers the moments (mean and variance) of the probability distribution of each random variable. The method also accounts for correlations among the component random variables. In Cases I and II of AASHTO, the variations of the sight distance along both legs

Crashes categorized as running red light or left turning are most likely to occur at signalized intersections and resulted in substantial severe injuries and property damages. This dissertation mainly focused on these two types of vehicle crashes and the research methodology involved several perspectives.

Abstract:
The Turbo Roundabout is a roundabout fitted with spiral roads to efficiently counteract the complexities of the modern multilane roundabout. This roundabout has an edge over cutting-edge roundabouts regarding capacity and safety and was first invented by Professor Fortujin in 1996. Fast driving speeds and many possible conflicts at multilane roundabout approaches, exits and circulatory roadways are the reasons for this type of construction project. Road designers have been attempting to address these issues over the past few years by implementing new roundabout configurations. Turbo-roundabout

Abstract:
In the past few years, billboards on the roadside have grown rapidly, creating a change in drivers' behavior. In addition to roadside advertising being a source of distractions, there were many growing problems that pose a threat to road safety. As a competing factor that attracts drivers, it can result in vehicle collisions and accidents. The paper discusses the impact of billboards, finding those factors that influence drivers' behavior, and developing a model that can predict those characteristics that influence driver behavior.

To achieve safe and unobstructed traffic flow at roundabouts and their approaches, the important condition that needs to be met is adequate visibility. Namely, a clear line of sight must be ensured to enable a driver without the right of way to engage in the roundabout traffic flow safely and to note on time the position of the vehicle in front of him. The issue of sight distance evaluation on suburban single-lane roundabouts will be analysed in this paper.

Abstract:
This article examines the influence of a vehicle driver's seating position on visibility. Since sight is the primary way a vehicle operator acquires information about the surroundings, visibility is regarded as a crucial factor in ensuring road safety. This study analyzed driver visibility from the driver's seat, focusing on blind spots generated by the vehicle's structural components. The investigation was conducted using a mannequin, at whose eye level vertical and horizontal lasers were attached. Visibility was assessed in BMW X3, testing five seating positions with varying backrest recline
