A critical examination of the current utility of the Traffic Conflicts Technique is presented, including an evaluation of previous studies. The evaluation of techniques for the control of direct access to arterial highways attempted to develop a rigorous experimental design using traffic conflicts as the basic response variable to measure the effectiveness of implementing various access control techniques. Although some studies have concluded that the Traffic Conflicts Technique is a reliable tool for predicting accident potential, these conclusions are not well supported. This does not say that the concept of conflict analysis should be abandoned, but that a more rigorous data base is needed before the reliability and utility of conflict analysis can be assured.
