Road Safety Under Low Visibility.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the element of road safety that is often underestimated the risks posed by the low visibility on roadways. This state that applies to many other factors such as adverse weather conditions; storms, heavy rains, smog, and high winds, among others. These factors, which only create fog, smoke, and shorten visibility distance, greatly influence the behaviors and decisions of the motorist, the movement of traffic as well as safety. One of the factors that most significantly contributes to road accidents, especially when does fog or heavy rain, occurs. It is also important to examine the strategies factors that diminish visibility have on drivers and vehicles performance in order to prevent road traffic accidents. If a drivers effectiveness is likely to be reduced due to lowered vision which does not permit a certain range of distance due to bad weather, the performance may degrade with the increased chance of conflict. The evaluation of the drivers low visibility performance is also useful in foreseeing the effective drivers interventions which will minimize the hazards present when driving under such conditions. In addition, one of the approaches that can be applied to ensure the safety of the roads during the low visibility periods is improving the mental and physical preparedness of the drivers to the bad weather. This revolves around knowing how effectively speed and control of the vehicle can be utilized where visibility is a challenge.
