Distance While Passing Vehicle Occupies Left Lane
Passing distance, abbreviated as \(d_2\), is the distance traveled by the passing vehicle while in the left lane.
- See \(\large{ PSD }\) = passing sight distance
Distance While Passing Vehicle Occupies Left Lane formulas
\(\large{ d_2 = \frac{ \bar {u} \; t_2 }{ 0.68 } }\) | |
\(\large{ d_2 = 1.47 \; \bar {u} \; t_2 }\) |
Where:
\(\large{ d_2 }\) = distance while passing vehicle occupies left lane
\(\large{ \bar {u} }\) = average speed of passing vehicle
\(\large{ t_2 }\) = time the passing vehicle occupies the left lane
