Air photo records of 35 mm were made during 10 peak traffic hours on two sections of urban freeway, 5 on four-lane and 5 on three-lane outbound section; speeds, time headways, distance headways, and response times were analyzed from samples selected from 1000 ft of projected films to include deceleration waves; each sample included from 40 to 150 pictures spaced 1 sec apart yielding 20 to 30 individual measurements for total of 3000 to 4500 in each sample; all measurements were corrected by computer for continuously changing camera angle and slant range.
