The relation between distance and sight area

The Mathematics Teacher, 1965
We all know that the apparent size of a moving body seems smaller to us as it moves farther away from us. According to this phenomenon, let us define the apparent length of a body as “sight length” and the distance between our eye and the body as “observing distance.” Thus, we can develop the following theorem.

Reliability of sight distance at stop-control intersections

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Transport, 2016
The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials presents guidelines for intersection sight distance (ISD) based on extreme values of the component design variables such as speed and time gap. The guidelines for a stopped vehicle at a stop-control intersection on a minor road assume that the component design variables are ...

Application of passing sight distance in road design

International Conference on Road and Rail Infrastructure, 2018
The regulations determine the minimum length of passing sight distance as the function of design speed. Researches have confirmed that passing sight distance has a positive impact on capacity for relatively low traffic volume. Recent researches show that the definition of passing capabilities as percentage of zones with forbidden passing (no passing ...

Model for Sight-Distance Analysis of Uncontrolled Intersections

Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1998
The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) model of calculating sight distance at intersections without control (Case I) has been modified to explicitly incorporate the design speeds of both intersecting roads in computing the required sight distance for each road.
