This paper presents a brief description and overview of a number of Traffic Conflict Technique studies carried out in Israel by various researchers. First, a comparison between objective and subjective measures of traffic conflicts is described. A second study described deals with a conflict study evaluation of flashing amber signal operation. Results of that study were encouraging and could warrant the conduct of a larger scale before-after experiment. Finally, a small operational application of TCT to a hazardous intersection is described.
