Sox 594, CANSCRRA, A.C.T., 2601, AUSTRALIA. rvailable from Price/Availability/FOmt 'ederal Office of Road Safety I lbstract This project was a continuation of a previous study in speed perception that evaluated the role of the type of road and road width, roadside development, travel speed, driving experience and the sex of the driver on estimates of safety and travel speed (Fildes, Fletcher & Corrigan, 1987). In the first experiment, the effect of night driving and time of testing on a driver's perception of speed on straight rural roads was assessed using the previous methodology. A validation study was performed to test whether the laboratory assessment technique was suitable for assessing speed perception at rural curves. A multi- factorial experiment followed that assessed the role of the previous road, environment, and driver variables (as well as curve radius and curve direction) on drivers' estimates of safety and travel speed on flat rural curves. The last experiment was a preliminary study to see whether the speed perception methodology was also suited to testing perceptions of following distance in rural areas. -

The Choices Between Life & Death
A choice between life and death Hartman A choice between Life and Death Jenelle Hartman Victoria Police ABSTRACT On 16 April, 2009, a tragic single vehicle collision occurred on the Princess Highway, Heathmere, Australia. On the fateful evening, the driver safely negotiated the 53 seat coach and eleven unassuming passengers around a right curve before continuing into a straight section of road where the vehicle speared onto the incorrect side of the road and into the path of an oncoming vehicle. The driver of the coach input a severe left manoeuvre to avoid colliding with the oncoming vehicle resulting in a loss of control and subsequent rollover of the coach. Five passengers were ejected and three, including a 2 year old child, sustained fatal injuries. The author, a collision reconstruction expert with Victoria police, attended the collision and identified a number of choices which had been made that ultimately led to the death of three people. This paper will look at the circumstances which contributed to the collision and the untimely deaths. The road surface was identified as a significant contributing factor due to skid resistance levels falling well below recommended levels. The road had been identified as being in need of repair in 2004 when another fatal collision occurred at the same location. A funding bid was launched to perform repairs. Due to funding failings, only a partial repair was made. Contractors who performed minor maintenance at the location in February 2009 failed to alert the governing body of the poor road condition. Two months later the tragic collision occurred.
