Relationships Among Perception-Reaction Times, Emergency Decel Rates, & Crash Outcomes
From the Mountain Plains Consortium Report: Perception-Reaction Time (PRT) and deceleration rate are two key components in geometric design of highways and streets. Combined with a design speed, they determine the minimum required stopping sight distance (SSD). Current American Association of Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) SSD guidance related to PRT and deceleration rate are based […]
