An analyst studies a “T” intersection and records the data of gap acceptance events shown in the table below. Fill out the last two columns.
For a specific rural road segment in northeast Colorado, the total number of crashes as well as the number of fatal crashes have been recorded. Using the data provided with a traffic analysis within two standard deviations (or 95% confidence interval), determine if this site should be flagged for further study. Data: Length of road segment = 2 mi. AADT = 11,350 veh/day Total number of injury crashes for past 5 years = 55 Total number of fatal crashes for past 5 years = 5 Total number of property-only crashes for past 5 years = 100 Average number of statewide injury crashes for rural roads over past 5 years = 1.30 per 106 VMT Average number of statewide fatal crashes for rural roads over past 5 years = 0.02 per 106 VMT Average number of statewide property only crashes for rural roads over past 5 years = .033 per 106 VMT Weighted average crash rate of injury crashes for rural Colorado roads = 3 Weighted average crash rate of fatal crashes for rural Colorado roads = 8 Weighted…
A traffic office imposes on an average 5 number of penalties daily on traffic violators. Assume that the number of penalti3s on different days is independent and follows a Poisson distribution. The probability that there will be less than 4 penalties in a day is

Two observers have determined that the time headways between successive vehicles are exponentially distributed and that 70% of the headways are 8s or greater. If one of observer decides to count traffic in 40s intervals, and the other in 35s intervals, estimate the probability of each observer counting 5 or more vehicles in their own intervals?

7. The following are the tabulation of the coverage count of the average daily traffic on a monthly and weekly basis made with automatic traffic counts on a highway. Use the tables to calculate;(a) the ADT for February and October based on 2 days counts: (i) on Tuesday in February the daily counts were 250 vehicles and (ii) on Friday in October, the daily traffic volume was 300 vehicles. (b) the AADT if the flows counted on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in July were 8000, 6000 and 5000 vehicles on a 16 hourly count basis.(c) the seven day 16 hourly flow in September.
