Abstract:Pavement marking style and patterns have largely been designed based on human vision. MnDOT is completing a human factors study on pavement marking variations, A field study included data collected through various methods from test corridors in Minnesota and Texas during daytime and nighttime driving. A closed course at Texas A&M University allowed researchers to observe how marking width, quality and the ratio of broken line markings to gap length impacted automated driving functions. A vehicle equipped with a camera-based data acquisition system that measured relative tracking performance of different pavement markings was driven on a roadway with 10-foot-long skip markings at 30- or 40-foot gaps and 4- or 6-inch-wide markings.
