RESULTS OF SPEED AND ACCIDENT STUDIES ON TWO-LANE RURAL ROADS IN GERMANY
Various studies dealing with particular questions on speed behavior and accident occurrence on two-lane rural roads outside built-up areas are available but differ considerably in nature and quality. In a research project of the Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt), carried out by Heusch/Boesefeldt Ltd., a number of two-lane rural road test routes were chosen for speed recordings and accident surveys in order to demonstrate correlations between accident, traffic, and roadside data. The results of these surveys are reported here.
