Safety Issues Of Red-light Running And Unprotected Left-turn At Signalized Intersections
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 …

LONG-TERM EFFECTS OF CONFIRMATION LIGHTS AND FACTORS THAT LEAD TO RED LIGHT RUNNING
Red Light Running (RLR) is a safety concern for communities nationwide. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) reported a total of 676 fatalities in 2009 were due to RLR. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) reported that more than half of RLR crash fatalities are other than the …

The Use Of The Ucf Driving Simiulator To Test The Contribution Of Larger Size Vehicles (lsvs) In Rear-end Collisions And Red Light Running On Intersections.
… at the University of Central Florida, acquired a sophisticated reconfigurable driving simulator. This simulator, which consists of a late model truck cab, or passenger vehicle cab, mounted on a motion base capable of operation with six degrees of freedom, is a great tool for traffic studies. …

Intersection Stopping Behavior as Influenced by Driver State: Implications for Intersection Decision Support Systems
… have prompted government and corporate sponsored research into collision countermeasure systems that can enhance safety at intersections. Researchers are investigating technologies to provide an infrastructure-based or infrastructure-cooperative Intersection Decision Support (IDS) systems. …

Statistical and Behavioral Modeling of Driver Behavior on Signalized Intersection Approaches
… vehicle crashes resulting from dilemma-zone and red-light-running problems. Such risk of vehicle crashes is greater for high-speed signalized intersection approaches. The research presented in this dissertation develops statistical as well as behavioral frameworks for modeling driver behavior …

New Dilemma Zone Mitigation Strategies
… safety. Incorrect decision might lead to a red light running and a right-angle Collison when passing through the intersection or a rear-end collision when failing to stop safely.Improperly timed traffic signal intervals result in the inability of the drivers to make the right decision and …

Modelling drivers’ behaviour within the dilemma zone at traffic signal junctions
… and validated micro-simulation model for predicting drivers’ decisions following the onset of an amber traffic light signal under the effect of the dilemma zone where a driver can neither stop safely nor cross and clear the junction before the onset of red. The purpose of building this …

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Blank-Out Overhead Dynamic Advance Warning Signal Systems
… of impending signal changes in an effort to reduce the frequency of red-light running (RLR) and crashes. A new advance warning signal design was tested on an approach to an HSSI in Utah to study the effects of the modified design on motorist behavior. The new design utilized an overhead …

Investigating Violation Behavior at Intersections using Intelligent Transportation Systems: A Feasibility Analysis on Vehicle/Bicycle-to-Infrastructure Communications as a Potential Countermeasure
… information, the second building block is to predict whether or not the user is going to violate. This step focuses on two different modes (i.e., driver violation prediction and cyclist violation prediction). Warnings can then be issued for users in potential danger to react or for the …
