Improved Traffic Flow Efficiency during Yellow Interval at Signalized Intersections Using a Smart Countdown System by Hussain, Qinaat

“…Results from a binary logistic regression model showed that the probability of crossing during the change interval significantly increased for the G-LED condition compared to the control condition, while it decreased in the F-green condition. Furthermore, the experiment disclosed that the odds of crossing the intersection (without red-light running) for the proposed smart advanced warning system (G-LED) were 29.67 and 2.58 compared to the F-green and the control conditions, respectively. …”
