Methods of Increasing Pedestrian Safety at Right-Turn-On-Red Intersections

摘要

The purpose of this study was to determine current motorist compliance to RTOR regulations, develop and field test countermeasures for RTOR pedestrian accidents, and develop improved warrants and guidelines for prohibition of RTOR. A critique was made of the current MUTCD guidelines on RTOR prohibition. Based on an analysis of conflicts at 199 intersection approaches, improved guidelines were recommended.
