Abstract:

Wrong-way driving (WWD) crashes occur when a motorist either inadvertently or deliberately drives in the opposite direction of travel on a divided roadway. For this research project, Texas A&M Transportation Institute researchers assessed the state-of-the-practice regarding WWD detection technology, developed a standardized testing mechanism to assess performance of WWD detection technologies, and evaluated select off-the-shelf technologies in closed-course and field environments. Based on the findings, researchers developed implementation guidance that can be used by practitioners to inform decisions regarding the selection of WWD detection technology. Researchers also recommended language for future technical specifications for WWD detection systems.
