Safety Impacts of Intersection Sight Distance

Christopher Monsere, Portland State University

Summary:

Research questions include: How does intersection sight distance (ISD) impact crashes? How can temporal variations in ISD (e.g., foliage) be quantified? Should quality of ISD and the presence of objects to judge depth perception be considered? How does the roadway and traffic affect the relationship between safety and ISD?
