To determine effectiveness of flashing beacon, "before and after" studies were made of several intersections; accident records for six intersections provided by Conn Dept of Highways, as well as speed studies made before and after installation of flashing beacon at one intersection; another intersection was studied by Virginia Dept of Highways to determine effectiveness of flashing beacon.
