Abstract

The purpose of this research was to determine the singular and combined effects of impedance distance, impedance speed, passing sight distance, and traffic volume on driver acceptance of passing opportunities as they occur on rural two-lane highways. A further aim was to describe empirically the effects of these variables on the nature of the passing maneuver.
