Determine the predicted average crash frequency, in crashes (per year), on a 7-mile segment of a rural divided multilane highway with 10-ft lanes and 8-ft paved shoulders that carries an AADT of 15,000 vehicles per day. The proportion of total crashes constituted by CMF-related crashes is 0.55.

Solved in 2 steps
- The crash rate on a heavily traveled two-lane rural highway is abnormally high. Thecorridor is 14 miles long with an ADT of 34,000. An investigation has determined thathead-on collisions are most common with an RMVMT of 4.5 and are caused by vehicles attempting to pass. Determine an appropriate countermeasure and calculate theestimated yearly reduction in total crashes.A state transportation agency want to evaluate engineering countermeasures applied to a two-lane,two-way rural highway segment.This 4 miles segment has been identified as having 14,19,and 23 total crashes in the last three years,before the implementation of the countermeasures.The AADT at the segment for last three years is 5630 vehicles per day and the AADT for after implementation is 6240 vehicles per day.Compute the expected average crash frequency for the after period, assuming the treatment was not implemented.The segment has the same conditions as the base conditions established for SPF.A proposed improvement will widen a two-lane rural highway from 9-ft-wide (per lane) to 11-ft-wide (per lane) if the highway has an AADT of 2100 veh/day. If there are an average of 25 crashes per year on the segment proposed for improvement, and 67% of the crashes are of the type targeted by the improvement, estimate the expected number of crashes (per year) after the improvement is constructed.
- The accident rates for 100 million vehicles miles of travel caused by people attempting to pass a heavily traffic 2 lane rural highway is 6.0. The length of the road is 10 miles with an average daily traffic of 36000. Determine the estimated yearly reduction in total crashes if the crash reduction factor is 0.25.Studies were conducted at two sits on rural roads with similar characteristics. The first site was 7.5 miles in length with an Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT) of 7,400. Over the year-long study period, 42 crashes occurred on this portion of roadway, 5 of them resulting in fatalities. The second site was a 14-mile section with an AADT of 4,700. There were 67 crashes in this section with 5 fatalities. Determine the appropriate crash rates for both locations, and discuss the implications.A 15 mile section of Kapayapaan Road had the following reported accidents for 6 years from 1992. It is required to compute the accident rates of all accidents
- The number of accidents for 6 years recorded in a certain section of a highway is 5892. If the average daily traffic is 476, what is the accident rate per HMVM in a segment of 10 miles?It is observed that 50 traffic crashes occurred on a 20-mile long section of Route 120 in one year. If the average daily traffic on the section was 5500 vehicles determine the rate of fatal crashes per 100 million vehicle-mile if 6% of the crashes involved fatalitiesThe accident rate for 100 million vehicle miles of travel is 9.8. The length of the road is 15 mileswith an ADT of 67,000. Determine the estimated yearly reduction in total crashes if the crashreduction factor is one third.
- A 1.5-mile section of a two-lane road has an AADT of 10,000. In a three-year period, there have been 6 fatal accidents and 12 non-fatal accidents. The state allows 350 accidents per 100 mvm for three years, of which 100 are fatal. For which value of confidence level, this highway is considered safe? If the following countermeasures are implemented: widening the existing lane by 2 feet, and widening the existing shoulder by 2 feet paved, and widening the clear zone by 5 feet, what will be the number of accidents reduced if the AADT became 12,000?The number of crashes involving trucks (“truck crashes”) has continuously increased as thenumber of truck increases. To analyze the association of truck crash rates with the number oflanes, truck crash rates were compared between two-lane and multi-lane highways as shown inthe table below. Is the standard deviation of truck crash rates significantly higher for two-lanehighways than multi-lane highways?Note: Final answer should be either “The standard deviation of truck crash rates is significantlyhigher for two-lane than multi-lane highways” or “The standard deviation of truck crash rates isnot significantly higher for two-lane than multi-lane highways”.Truck crash rates (crashes/million vehicle-km)Site No. Two-lane highways Multi-lane highways12345670.2560.3420.8421.0210.3610.2620.8610.1880.3120.4210.2850.2250.1831. With the new highway interchange at a dangerous street intersection, police records indicate an average of 5 accidents per month. The Department of Traffic Safety wants to investigate the probability of the following occurring in any month:a) No more than 4 accidents.c) At least 2 accidents.b) A single accident.d) At most 2 accidents in 15 days.
