Question
Observation post reveals that 8 vehicles passed through at intervals of 4.6 s, 6.23
s, 5.9 s, 7.1 s, 4.9 s, 3.8 s, 12.6 s, and 13.0 s, respectively. If the total distance travelled
by the vehicles is 200 meters,
i. If the density of traffic is 20 vpk, compute the rate of flow of traffic in vph.
ii. If the speed limit imposed along the roadway is 100 kph, determine the percentage of
speed limit violators.
