abstract="The objective of this paper is to empirically investigate drivers' decision zones at the onset of flashing green and yellow indication at rural high-speed intersections in China. 1122 high-resolution trajectories of the first-to-stop and the last-to-go vehicles during the phase transition time period were collected at four intersection approaches in Shanghai. Speed-Distance (S-D) diagram and Acceleration-Deceleration (A-D) diagram were then used to analyze the distribution of drivers' decision zones in response to the onset of flashing green and yellow respectively. The former is a conventional approach based on a fundamental assumption that no drivers would accelerate to cross or make an abrupt stop. The latter is a more flexible method based on the required acceleration rate to cross and the required deceleration rate to stop which can be extracted from vehicle trajectory data. <br><br>RESULTS support that the installation of flashing green helps to reduce the dilemma zone according to the A-D diagram. There are limits when using S-D diagram to analyse the driving situations based on G.H.M model.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
