Traffic Operations Control for Older Drivers and Pedestrians
Summary Report
Federal Highway Administration
The purpose of this investigation was to determine which intersection operational characteristics could be altered to accommodate age-related changes. Two key driver issues were examined in order to identify the specific older driver problems and then to make recommendations for changes to current standards, including left-turn signalization comprehension, and traffic signal responses and stopping behavior.
