ON THE QUESTION OF WARNING DRIVERS ABOUT DRIVING CONDITIONS IN AREAS WITH UNSECURED VISIBILITY
Analysis of road traffic accidents indicates a mismatch between the actual speeds in areas of vertical and horizontal curves, their geometrical parameters, in particular, the range of vision. From this, it follows the need to develop methods for the organization of movement in areas with unsecured visibility. A large proportion of accidents associated with the failure to observe the rules of overtaking and exit on the left side shows that the existing means of traffic management in the areas of horizontal and vertical curves are not sufficiently effective. These findings suggest the need to develop a clear means of the organization of movement, which inform drivers about driving conditions in areas with unsecured visibility. In order to reduce travel time in areas with unsecured visibility and reduce traffic accidents is proposed to use the information device, a warning about the possibility or impossibility of overtaking. Developed an information device is a means of control and traffic management, and is intended to reduce the number of traffic accidents and reduce the time of movement of cars on the road with an unsecured visibility in plan and profile. Information devices suggest that you set on the way to a dangerous site from both directions at a distance of visibility is not less than 400 m, and traffic does not exceed 400 auto / h per lane.
