Lane departure crashes are a significant safety concern. The majority of lane departure crashes occur in rural areas, mostly on 2-lane roadways. A disproportionate number of these crashes occur on horizontal curves. Curve related crashes involve a number of roadway and driver causative factors. A primary driver factor is speeding and a large number of run-off-road fatal crashes on curves are speed related. The amount of speed change needed from the tangent speed to the speed required to traverse a curve has an impact on the frequency and severity of crashes on curves.
