Finding F4
There are man-made characteristics at this intersection that contribute to collisions: a) Vehicles have views of six light panels, which cause confusion when entering the intersection. (Figure 3) b) Two light panels have a green light arrow for a right turn onto Shepherd Avenue which adds to the confusion for northbound Friant Avenue drivers. (Figure 4) c) There are four evergreen trees in the median that block the view of the traffic signals, giving drivers less time to react as they approach the intersection. (Figure 5)
