September 24, 2010 | 3:45 p.m. You know that texting while driving is dangerous. But just how dangerous is it? According to researchers from the University of North Texas Health Science Center in Ft. Worth, texting behind the wheel accounted for 16,141 deaths between 2002 and 2007. The...

Hi Viatologists, The Worldwide Transportation Library (WWTL) returns to the U.S. state of New York! Stay tuned this weekend for pictures and videos of Manhattan bridges and tunnels. Content should be posted next week. As the worldwide leader in roadside capturing, the WWTL offers photos from...

I have seen a new form of Sloth today. The driver of an SUV was exiting the roadway as I approached from approximately 250 m behind. The SUV had driven completely down the deceleration lane and was starting around the curve after the exit. I was surprised when I saw the driver stop suddenly...

You may have seen the word 'viatology' discussed in these forums. But what does it mean? Viatology is the scientific study of roads. Using the scientific method to measure and collect data about worldwide roads, people are able to share objective data about roads, border crossing,...

Hi, I am hoping that there are still some people left to talk about an actual driving topic that comes up every so often in my daily commute. The situation is this: I merge onto a four-lane interstate highway. There is one other car in the area, which has moved over into the left lane to allow me...

Would you rather have some idiot crash into you at 40 mph or 70? It's just that simple.

I understand the desire of some drivers to be first in line at a traffic signal. You were going to be first in line at the traffic signal in the #2 lane, and I was going to be behind you. But then you changed lanes to the #1 (left) lane just 10 feet before the traffic signal, cutting off the...

A number of high-end Pasadena residentialneighborhoods have speed humps installed which blatantly announce a 15-MPH speed limit. I can see that vehicles with stiff springs would have to slow down for humps more than cushily-sprung vehicles, but to deliberately force ALL vehicles to the...
