The number of crashes that have occurred over the past 5 yearsare 5 fatal, 55 injury crashes and 100 property damage only crashes. Statewide averagecrashes for this type of road are 2 fatal, 130 injury, and 300 property damage onlycrashes per 100 MVMT. The weighting factors for fatal, injury and property crashesare 8, 3, 1, respectively. Using the critical crash ratio methodology, determine whetherthis site can be labeled a hazardous site. Use a 95 percent confidence limit.arrow_forward
