The article reports that a United States. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) study links dynamic messages to a reduction in roadway departures on two-lane rural curves, which have high crash histories. Most of the departure crashes occur on rural two-lane roadways with a disproportionate number taking place on horizontal curves. The average crash rate at horizontal curves is three times that of other types of highway segments.
