According to FDOT Safety Engineers, the requirement for reporting traffic crashes (in state crash database) in Florida has reduced the number of crash reports available for engineering study by approximately half. (The state crash database includes only those crashes involving hit and run, fatality, DUI, and injury. However, the county crash databases include all reported crashes on all roads). This situation has resulted in an increasing difficulty in the identification and justification of highway safety improvements. Therefore, the demand for accurate crash surrogate data has increased. A comprehensive traffic conflict study was conducted by the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) to observe conflicts, collect crash data and develop tables for Florida-based intersections. Based on the conflict and crash data, new and easy-to-use tables were developed for Florida-based intersections. Based on the conflict and crash data, new and easy-to-use tables were developed for Florida-based intersections.
