Lane departure crashes are among the most common crashes in Florida and in the United States. Many departments of transportation (DOTs) prioritize reducing both the frequency and severity of these accidents. Auditory vibratory treatments (AVTs), or rumble strips, are frequently used to prevent or reduce lane departure incidents. Traditional rumble strips produce exterior noises that become a burden to nearby residents. To address the noise issues, several DOTs considered a new type of AVT called sinusoidal rumble strips. The research team conducted an in-depth literature review, agency interviews, a focus group, and an assessment of studies conducted by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) to evaluate the noise reduction and bicycle accommodation of sinusoidal rumble strips installed in Florida and across the nation. The research concludes that sinusoidal rumble strips can effectively mitigate external noise problems while effectively notifying drivers and occupants of lane departures.
