Such crashes were found to be relatively common and to be associated with both older and younger right turning drivers. Full control of right turn movements at all times of the day appears to be the most effective treatment. Dedicated right turn lanes and the use of red light and speed cameras may also offer some safety benefits. | | Report Number | CASR007 | | Publisher | Centre for Automotive Safety Research | | Publisher City | Adelaide | | Sponsor | Department for Transport, Energy and Infrastructure (SA) | | ISBN | 9781920947088 | | ISSN | 1449-2237 | | Page Count | 36 |
