Abstract

An application of time-lapse photography as a tool for solving highway engineering problems can be seen in this study to evaluate the effects of a new diagrammatic sign. The principal variable for determining the effect of the sign on motorists was vehicular erratic maneuvers in a before and after study. Time-lapse photography provided an economical and accurate means of data acquisition.
