Feasibility of an automatic truck warning system / by Hughes, Warren Edward,1956-(CARDINAL)311203; McGee, Hugh W.(CARDINAL)311202; United States.Federal Highway Administration.(CARDINAL)139839; Bellomo-McGee, Inc.(CARDINAL)311201;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 71-73).Introduction -- Truck rollover problem on freeway ramps -- Identification of trucks with high rollover potential -- Alternative warning systems -- Design and costs for selected system -- Appendices -- References.Final report;One of the identified truck accident types that occur on curved exit ramps at interchanges is truck rollover. A truck will overturn or rollover if the lateral acceleration imposed upon it as it travels around a curve of a certain radius and superelevation is greater than allowable given its loading condition. Also, there is a speed at which rollover will occur. This report deals with an automatic warning system to prevent truck rollover. Within the study, three different options were identified and evaluated for feasibility. Of the three, the option selected for further definition and cost-effectiveness analyses was an inroad detection/warning system.Sponsored by Office of Safety and Traffic Operations R&D, FHWA, and performed by Bellomo-McGee, Inc., under contract no.

Guidelines for the use of no U-turn and no left-turn signs / by Brich, Stephen C.(CARDINAL)323574; Cottrell, Benjamin H.(CARDINAL)311411; Virginia.Department of Transportation.(CARDINAL)291718; Virginia Transportation Research Council.(CARDINAL)195142;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 22-23).Final report.The objective of this study was to establish a set of written guidelines identifying traffic and road conditions where No U-Turn and No Left Turn signs should be installed. The effect of these signs on traffic safety was also investigated. A questionnaire was sent to all Virginia Department of Transportation District Traffic Engineers, selected city and county traffic engineers in Virginia, and selected state, city and county traffic engineers outside of Virginia, asking about their current procedures for installing No U-Turn and No Left Turn signs. Eight signalized intersections where these signs had been installed were studied to determine the effect of the signs on left-turn and U-turn related accidents. The signs reduced left-turn and U-turn related accident rates an average of 63 percent for the restricted movement, and 66 percent for the intersection. The decrease in accident numbers paralleled the decrease in accident rates, a 59 percent reduction for the restricted movement and a 62 percent reduction for the intersection. Based on the results from the questionnaire and a literature review, guidelines were established to aid traffic engineers in determining where to install these signs.
