The study identified driver information needs on rural two-lane roads along with potential types of problems that could be alleviated through informational treatments. A simple, inexpensive procedure was developed that could be used by state and local jurisdictions to identify information deficiencies on two-lane rural roads. As part of the study, a 5000-mile, 15-state sample of roadway and informational characteristics was acquired using a microcomputer-based instrumented vehicle. The data base, provided a means of determining the nature of informational problems and of estimating the magnitude of information deficiencies on the nation's rural two-lane road system. The Technical Report presents the overall results of the study. It focuses on categorizing specific information deficiencies and on estimating the nature and potential magnitude of the driver information needs related problems on the two-lane rural road system. This is volume 1 of a four volume set.
