Jun 26, 2015 · Rubbernecking—or slowing down to scope out an accident on the side of the road—is a major cause of traffic jams. The bright lights and colors on emergency response vehicles are designed to grab people’s visual attention.
rubbernecking that occurs following a crash and (3) fostering better driving behaviour that also helps to reduce congestion (e.g. driving slower and following less closely so that less hard braking is required). To this end, we highlight three strategies with the potential to reduce congestion: roadway design interventions, promoting guidelines for
Results from the model suggest that on‐fi ramps, high‐occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, and percent of trucks are factors associated with rubbernecking. In addition, validation...
Sep 30, 2013 · Occasionally drivers passing a traffic crash will be involved in the crash themselves, due to rubbernecking. To combat this problem one solution is to obscure the scene from view. We empirically examined the efficacy of crash barriers on both eye movements and human per-formance in regards to driver behavior.
