### Question 10 **What is the level of service of a freeway facility that has a free flow speed of 70 mph and an analysis volume (or flow rate) of 2200 passenger cars/hour/lane?** - ○ D - ○ E - ○ A - ○ C - ○ B #### Explanation: This question is part of a traffic engineering assessment focused on determining the level of service (LoS) which quantifies traffic quality. The free flow speed and flow rate are critical parameters for this evaluation. The correct answer must be selected from the options given: D, E, A, C, or B. To provide some context, the Level of Service (LoS) is typically graded from A to F, where: - **A** represents the best operating conditions with free flow, - **B** through **D** represent moderate levels of congestion, - **E** represents operating conditions at or near full capacity, - **F** represents breakdown or very congested flow. This question requires familiarity with the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) benchmarks for determining LoS.
