Dangerous Roads Around The World

• Texture (roads) - Deviations from a true planar pavement surface, which affects the interaction between road and tire. Microtexture have wavelengths below 0.5 mm, Macrotexture below 50 mm and Megatexture below 500 mm.
• Traffic calming - Set of strategies used by urban planners and traffic engineers which aim to slow down or reduce traffic, thereby improving safety for pedestrians and bicyclists as well as improving the environment for residents
• Traffic island - UK a small raised area used to help define the traffic flow, and which may also act as a refuge for pedestrians crossing the carriageway or a location for signs, barriers or lights. A synonym for roundabout in some parts of the UK.
