  2. Speed bump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_bump

    Speed bumps vary in length, but it is typical to leave space between the bump and either edge of an enclosed road (i.e. with curbs and gutters) to allow for drainage. Spaces on either side may also allow more expedient passage for emergency vehicles, though effectiveness will depend on the type of vehicle and specific road design.

    Speed bumps have limited effectiveness: They only modestly reduce average speeds and their impact is localized. Unintended consequences exist: Speed bumps can pose safety risks, increase noise ...

  4. Zebra crossing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zebra_crossing

    The light colour is usually white and the dark colour may be painted – in which case black is typical – or left unpainted if the road surface itself is dark. The stripes are typically 40–60 cm (16–24 in) wide. [citation needed] Sometimes, zebra crossings are placed on a speed bump, meaning the zebra crossing is level with the pavement ...

  5. Speed skating rink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_skating_rink

    The dimensions of a standard speed skating rink. The measurement of the track is made half a meter into the lane. [4] The total length of the track is the distance a competitor skates each lap, i.e. the length of two straights, one inner curve and one outer curve, in addition to the extra distance skated when changing lanes in the cross-over area, which on a standard track equals 7 centimeters.

  7. International roughness index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_roughness_index

    A common misconception is that the 80 km/h used in the simulation must also be used when physically measuring roughness with an instrumented vehicle. IQL-1 systems measure the elevation profile, independent of speed, and IQL-3 systems typically have correlation equations for different speeds to relate the actual measurements to IRI.

    Decimal Time clock reading 2.50 DT equivalent to 6 AM standard time. The measurement of time is unique in SI in that while the second is the base unit, and measurements of time smaller than a second use prefixed units smaller than a second (e.g. microsecond, nanosecond, etc.), measurements larger than a second instead use traditional divisions ...

  9. Geometric design of roads - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_design_of_roads

    US standards specify the height of the driver's eye is defined as 1080 mm (3.5 ft) above the pavement, and the height of the object the driver needs to see as 600 mm (2.0 ft), which is equivalent to the taillight height of most passenger cars. [6]
