Abstract:

Twenty-two percent of crashes at urban signalized intersections are claimed to be caused nationwide by drivers who run red lights. To improve safety at signalized intersections, red-light running countermeasures have been applied in twelve states. Currently, there are no specific countermeasures in Indiana nor is there an assessment of the red light running in Indiana. This research project was designed to assess the magnitude of red light running, evaluate selected countermeasures, and, finally, identify driver and road characteristics that are associated with excessive red light running in Indiana.
