At a signalized intersection approach (northbound), the speed limit is 45 mph. The width of the cross street (east approach) is 72 ft. If the length of the design vehicle is 16 ft, what should be the yellow and all-red times (to the next 0.5 sec). Use perception/reaction time of 1.0 sec, and deceleration rate of 10.0 ft/s². Assume 0% grade. Round your answers to the next one second.
