Event Description/Abstract
Intersection Sight Distance Considerations for Horse-Drawn Vehicles—This presentation reviews potential modifications to the intersection sight distance triangle based on the stopping position and gap acceptance of horse-drawn vehicles. Some Indiana counties (Elkhart, LaGrange, Dubois, etc.) have large numbers of buggies on the road, and this research investigated how to accommodate their unique vehicle characteristics for intersection design.
