Abstract:

This is a field manual designed for maintenance supervisors and resident ; engineers responsible for repair and replacement of traffic control devices on ; highways and streets. Standards and practices have not always taken in account ; the realities of the performance to be expected from a growing minority in the ; United States, the older motorist. After describing some aspects of older ; motorist performance in basic terms, sections are presented on signing, signals, ; pavement markings and other traffic control provisions. Using the principles of ; Positive Guidance pioneered by Alexander and Lunenfeld of the Federal Highway ; Administration, suggestions are offered for improving the flow of information ; from the highway to the older motorist, which indirectly makes driving easier ; for everybody.
