The interaction between infrastructure and human factors leads to the concept of geometric design consistency, which can be defined as how drivers' expectations and road behavior fit. This paper presents a new global consistency model based on the difference between the inertial operating speed profile ( LA - en SN - 2473-2907 UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1061/JTEPBS.0000126 ID - ref1 ER -
