✦ Synopsis


The paper describes the background and evaluates the effectiveness of a flashing green phase just before the amber leading to red phase in the traffic signal cycle. This type of signal sequence, practiced in Israel and a few other countries, was thought to provide drivers with useAfl information which should lead to better stop or go decisions. However, accident analysis studies have sho~n an increase in collisions following the introduction of a flashing green. A laborato U simulation study designed to explain the accident findings was conducted. It was found that the flashing green elicited from the drivers an earlier decision response and a higher number of inappropriate stopping decisions, particularly c[ose to the intersection. The pattern of stopping and crossing decisions in the flashing green program suggests more friction between stopping and nonstopping vehicles and, therefore, a higher likelihood of front-rear collisions compared to a regular program.
