Abstract

An unobtrusive study was made of vehicles approaching low volume, uncontrolled cross-intersections, with restricted right sight distances, at which the give-way-to-the right rule was operative. The hypotheses were that one factor that influenced motorists' approach speeds on the major road was the frequency with which vehicles emerged from the right and that most drivers exceeded the safe approach speed when this probability was low.
