Monograph

This issue contains twelve papers on operator education and regulation; safe mobility for older persons; traffic law enforcement; occupant protection; and alcohol and other drugs. This issue contains twelve papers on operator education and regulation; safe mobility for older persons; traffic law enforcement; occupant protection; and alcohol and other drugs. Specific topics addressed in this issue include the following: reducing red light running violations at freeway ramp intersections; effectiveness of selective law enforcement in reducing crashes; red light enforcement cameras; confirmation lights on red light running violations; training interventions to mitigate effects of fatigue and sleepiness; and risky driving among teenagers. Other topics addressed in this issue are: aging population-focused accessibility assessment; traffic crash history of cognitively impaired drivers; changes in physical function and driving mobility behaviors of older adults; improved heavy-truck crashworthiness and occupant protection in frontal impacts; alcohol and fatigue on driving performance in different road geometries; and policy measures against alcohol-impaired driving.
