Guidelines for Advance Placement oF Warning Signs 19 20 SUMMARY: 21 The existing MUTCD provisions for Advance Traffic Control Signs refers to Table 2C-4 22 Guidelines for Advance Placement of Warning Signs as a reference to determine 23 sufficient distance to permit a road user to respond to the control device at the 24 intersection. The road user needs to see the STOP or YIELD sign in sufficient time to 25 bring their vehicle to a stop at the intersection. This reference can lead to an improper 26 determination of adequate visibility distance for a road user to decelerate to a stop 27 condition. This road user requirement is reflected in the AASHTO Guidelines for 28 Stopping Sight Distance.. 29 30 RESEARCH: 31 The AASHTO Stopping Sight Distance is based on 2.5 seconds perception/reaction 32 time exceeding the 90th percentile of all drivers. The vehicle stopping distance is 33 documented in NCHRP 400 as providing a comfortable deceleration rate and adequate 34 for wet pavements. -
2B-1 Application of Regulatory Signs Regulatory
6. REGULATORY SIGNS 2B-1 Application of Regulatory Signs Regulatory signs inform highway users of traffic laws or regulations and indicate the applicability of legal requirements that would not oth- erwise be apparent. These signs shall be erected wherever needed to fulfill this purpose, but unnecessary mandates should be avoided. The laws of many States specify that certain regulations are enforceable only when made known by official signs. Some regulatory signs are related to operational controls but do not impose any obligations or prohibitions. For example, signs giving ad- vance notice of or marking the end of a restricted zone are included in the regulatory group. Regulatory signs normally shall be erected at those locations where regulations apply. The sign message shall clearly indicate the require- ments imposed by the regulation and shall be easily visible and legible to the vehicle operator. 2B-2 Classification of Regulatory Signs Regulatory signs are classified in the following groups: 1. Right-of-way series: (a) STOP sign (sec. 2B-4 to 6) (b) YIELD sign (sec. 2B-7 to 9) 2. Speed series (sec. 2B-10 to 14) 3. Movement series: (a) Turning (see. 2B-15 to 19) (b) Alignment (sec. 2B-20 to 25) (c) Exclusion (see. 2B-26 to 28) (d) One Way (sec. 2B-29 to 30) 4. Parking series (see. 2B-31 to 34) 5. Pedestrian series (see. 2B-35 to 36) 6. Miscellaneous series (sec. 2B-37 to 44) 2B-3 Design of Regulatory Signs Regulatory signs are rectangular, with the longer dimension vertical, and have black legend on a white background, except for those signs whose standards specify otherwise. -
Traffic and Road Sign Recognition
Traffic and Road Sign Recognition Hasan Fleyeh This thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of Napier University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2008 Abstract This thesis presents a system to recognise and classify road and traffic signs for the purpose of developing an inventory of them which could assist the highway engineers’ tasks of updating and maintaining them. It uses images taken by a camera from a moving vehicle. The system is based on three major stages: colour segmentation, recognition, and classification. Four colour segmentation algorithms are developed and tested. They are a shadow and highlight invariant, a dynamic threshold, a modification of de la Escalera’s algorithm and a Fuzzy colour segmentation algorithm. All algorithms are tested using hundreds of images and the shadow-highlight invariant algorithm is eventually chosen as the best performer. This is because it is immune to shadows and highlights. It is also robust as it was tested in different lighting conditions, weather conditions, and times of the day. Approximately 97% successful segmentation rate was achieved using this algorithm. Recognition of traffic signs is carried out using a fuzzy shape recogniser. Based on four shape measures - the rectangularity, triangularity, ellipticity, and octagonality, fuzzy rules were developed to determine the shape of the sign. Among these shape measures octangonality has been introduced in this research. The final decision of the recogniser is based on the combination of both the colour and shape of the sign. The recogniser was tested in a variety of testing conditions giving an overall performance of approximately 88%. -

All rights reserved. Published 1952. Second Edition 1963. First Phoenix Impression 1963. Printed in the United States of America oi.uchicago.edu PREFACE HE book contains twelve chapters, but it can be broken up structurally into five parts. First, the place of writing among the various systems of human inter communication is discussed. This is followed by four Tchapters devoted to the descriptive and comparative treatment of the various types of writing in the world. The sixth chapter deals with the evolution of writing from the earliest stages of picture writing to a full alphabet. The next four chapters deal with general problems, such as the future of writing and the relationship of writing to speech, art, and religion. Of the two final chapters, one contains the first attempt to establish a full terminology of writing, the other an extensive bibliography. The aim of this study is to lay a foundation for a new science of writing which might be called grammatology. While the general histories of writing treat individual writings mainly from a descriptive-historical point of view, the new science attempts to establish general principles governing the use and evolution of writing on a comparative-typological basis. -
Traffic Signs
TRAFFIC SIGNS Traffic signs control the flow of traffic, warn you of hazards ahead, guide you to your destination, and inform you of roadway services. As indicated below, traffic signs are intentionally color coded to assist the operator. RED - stop GREEN - direction YELLOW - general warning BLACK/WHITE - regulation BLUE - motorist service (e.g., gas, food, hotels) BROWN - recreational, historic, or scenic site ORANGE - construction or maintenance warning STOP AND YIELD SIGNS The STOP sign always means come to a complete halt and applies to each vehicle that comes to the sign. You must stop before any crosswalk or stop line painted on the pavement. Come to a complete stop, yield to pedestrians or other vehicles, and proceed carefully. Simply slowing down is not enough. If a 4-WAY or ALL WAY sign is added to a STOP sign at an intersection, all traffic approaching the intersection must stop. The first vehicle in the intersection of a four-way stop has the right of way. When you see a YIELD sign, slow down and be prepared to stop. Let traffic, pedestrians, or bicycles pass before you enter the intersection or join another roadway. You must come to a complete stop if traffic conditions require it. 56 REGULATORY SIGNS The United States is now using an international system of traffic control signs that feature pictures and symbols rather than words. The red-and-white YIELD and DO NOT ENTER signs prohibit access or movement. WARNING SIGNS Yellow warning signs alert you to hazards or changes in conditions ahead. Changes in road layout, proximity to a school zone, or some special situation are examples of warning signs. -
Chapter 2 SIGNS
Chapter 2 SIGNS Topic No. 750-000-005 March 1999 Traffic Engineering Manual Revised: November 2017 Signs Section 2.1 USE OF SLIPPERY WHEN WET SIGNS 2.1.1 CONDITIONS FOR USE The District Traffic Operations Engineer shall request the District Maintenance Engineer to erect SLIPPERY WHEN WET (W8-5) signs at locations where it has been determined there is a slippery pavement condition. A slippery pavement is defined when a standard friction test at 40 mph has determined the skid numbers are less than 25. When the posted highway speed is above 45 mph, SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs should be installed when the skid numbers are less than 30, and also one of the following conditions is met: • When the Safety Ratio (Actual Crash Rate divided by the Critical Crash Rate) is greater than or equal to one. • Any downgrade greater than 3 percent. • At intersections with traffic signals. 2.1.2 LOCATION AND PLACEMENT Additional signs may be needed at locations with the following conditions: (1) Horizontal Curves. SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs are to be placed prior to the CURVE sign with an advisory speed plate. The ball-bank indicator provides a reasonable speed through the curve; however, a lower speed may be desired if there are known extraordinary hazards such as hydroplaning. (2) Hydroplaning. Generally, hydroplaning only occurs at speeds above 47 mph; however, excessive runoff across travel lanes may produce hydroplaning at lower speeds. Multi-lane facilities, rutted lanes, built-up shoulders, and downgrades are candidate locations. If excessive water buildup cannot be corrected, then SLIPPERY WHEN WET signs may be appropriate even when skid numbers are greater than 30. -

Signs and Markings
2011 Edition Page 881 CHAPTER 8B. SIGNS AND MARKINGS Section 8B.01 Purpose Support: 01 Passive traffic control systems, consisting of signs and pavement markings only, identify and direct attention to the location of a grade crossing and advise road users to slow down or stop at the grade crossing as necessary in order to yield to any rail traffic occupying, or approaching and in proximity to, the grade crossing. 02 Signs and markings regulate, warn, and guide the road users so that they, as well as LRT vehicle operators on mixed-use alignments, can take appropriate action when approaching a grade crossing. Standard: 03 The design and location of signs shall comply with the provisions of Part 2. The design and location of pavement markings shall comply with the provisions of Part 3. Section 8B.02 Sizes of Grade Crossing Signs Standard: 01 The sizes of grade crossing signs shall be as shown in Table 8B-1. Option: 02 Signs larger than those shown in Table 8B-1 may be used (see Section 2A.11). Section 8B.03 Grade Crossing (Crossbuck) Sign (R15-1) and Number of Tracks Plaque (R15-2P) at Active and Passive Grade Crossings Standard: 01 The Grade Crossing (R15-1) sign (see Figure 8B-1), commonly identified as the Crossbuck sign, shall be retroreflectorized white with the words RAILROAD CROSSING in black lettering, mounted as shown in Figure 8B-2. Support: 02 In most States, the Crossbuck sign requires road users to yield the right-of-way to rail traffic at a grade crossing. Standard: 03 As a minimum, one Crossbuck sign shall be used on each highway approach to every highway-rail grade crossing, alone or in combination with other traffic control devices. -
