Abstract

The effects of public posting on speeding behavior on an urban highway were assessed uswing a reversal design. During baseline the percentage of drivers speeding was measured wiht a concealed radar unit. During the daily posting condition a highway sign was installed which provided feedback on the best record to date. This sign was then covered and reintroduced. Results indicated that the sign was effective in reducing speeding behavior.
