Characteristic studied was left-turn gap acceptance distribution and its variation with types of left turns and types of gaps in opposing traffic stream; studies were conducted at 6 intersections in 4 large Texas cities using multiple-event recorder and 16-mm time-lapse filming techniques to develop data; over 1000 left-turning vehicles were observed for gap acceptance and other left-turn characteristics; gap acceptance distributions were developed on rectangular coordinates, probability-logarithmic coordinates, and as regression lines on probit-log time coordinates.
