Driver Information Needs and Visibility of Traffic Control Devices
The 14 papers in the report deal with the following areas: applicability of guidance and navigation systems; traffic characteristics during signal change intervals; accident effects of centerline markings on low-volume rural roads; evaluation of freeway crash cushion delineation treatments; timing traffic signal change intervals based on driver behavior; route designators to the centers of large urban areas and suburbs within urban areas; highway sign meaning as an indicator of perceptual response; drivers' unconscious errors in the processing of traffic signs; recognition errors among highway signs; restraint usage at child care centers; optimal and minimal luminance characteristics for retroreflective highway signs; freeway lighting and traffic safety--a long-term investigation; detection of reflectorized license plates; and, a microcomputer program for use with the American National Standard Practice for Roadway Lighting.
