Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which geometric design element is critical for ensuring visibility at intersections?
  • Step 1: Understand that intersections are places where roads meet.
  • Step 2: Recognize that drivers need to see other vehicles and pedestrians at these intersections.
  • Step 3: Learn that 'sight distance' refers to how far a driver can see ahead when approaching an intersection.
  • Step 4: Realize that having enough sight distance helps drivers react safely to any obstacles or other vehicles.
  • Step 5: Conclude that ensuring adequate sight distance is critical for safety and visibility at intersections.
