A system, which measures the time-gap between successive vehicles and illuminates a warning sign if this gap is less than a pre-set level, is shown to affect the close-following behaviour of drivers on the A332 at Ascot. The number of accidents was insufficient to indicate whether there had been a reduction associated with the operation of the sign.
