PREMISE
When someone drives the wrong way on a highway off-ramp, every road user around them is immediately at tremendous risk of injury or death. In fact, wrong-way driving collisions have a fatality rate 12 times greater than all other accidents on controlled-access highways, according to the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans).
Reducing wrong-way driving requires a combination of expertise, hardware and software, the latter of which is too often ignored.
With this white paper, TAPCO aims to provide data-backed insights from knowledgeable organizations and our many years of hands-on experience so transportation professionals can make more informed decisions about wrong-way alert systems and software. More informed decisions equal more lives saved.
About 500 people die in wrong-way driving collisions each year in the U.S. alone.
