If you are a frequent rider of Metro or a tourist who has been to the city many times, you might wonder: What is at each Metro stop? Is there anything at each stop that is interesting to see? Is it even worth getting off the train, or is some hidden gem being missed?
This book will answer those questions, and it will also cover the usual tourist attractions, including the museums, monuments and memorials on the National Mall. In fact, the author worked and volunteered for the National Park Service on the National Mall for over six years. This means there are insights concerning the main tourist areas that you probably won't find in another book. However, this book is much more than a tourist book, and sometimes it is less than a tourist book. Readers who are looking for great detail, including the history, architecture and a long narrative about different places, should buy one of the many other tourist books available. What you will get from this book is a brief review of places of interest along the Metro route. This book is also about the culture of Metro and as such the culture of the Washington Metropolitan area (DMV) and, frequently, the nation. This includes culture-war battles in the DC area (DMV) over the names of a county and an airport. It also includes culture-war battles over some monuments and memorials as well as a theater. Finally, the Civil War statue in Old Town Alexandria is discussed. There are also a few stories built in here and there and some insights about current issues in the area. These issues include everything from race relations and gentrification to the name "Redskins" for the Washington football team. Finally, the book describes an adventure. You may be a long-time rider of Metro, but there is still an adventure waiting for you within these pages. I hope you have a great ride.

Описание: According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), per vehicle mile travelled in 2010, motorcyclists were about 30 times more likely to die in a traffic crash than passenger car occupants. States have implemented various strategies to address the factors contributing to motorcycle crashes and fatalities, and NHTSA has assisted these efforts through guidance, grants, and research. This book examines motorcycle crashes and state safety efforts.

Описание: The annual number of motorcycle rider fatalities in the United States increased from 2294 in 1998 to 5290 in 2008 (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 2010). Many multi-vehicle motorcycle crashes involve right-of-way violations where another vehicle turns in front of, or crosses the path of an on-coming motorcycle. Improving the frontal conspicuity of motorcycles with auxiliary forward lighting may reduce these types of crashes. This book describes some recent studies sponsored by NHTSA on motorcycle conspicuity.
Автор: Rossger Название: Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity ISBN: 1472411129 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781472411129 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 168430.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: It’s a widely recognised trend that powered-two-wheelers' (PTWs) use has been steadily increasing and is projected to increase further. While providing benefits to the community in the form of reduced traffic congestion and environmental benefits, the risks to PTW riders remain and visibility will always be a key issue. Increasing Motorcycle Conspicuity aims to illustrate how driving simulation, field studies and laboratory experiments can be used to improve rider safety through the design and evaluation of a range of safety measures. The book outlines the factors that contribute to PTW visibility and detection by car drivers, and presents case studies to illustrate how the various methods can be used to explore the contribution of these factors. The final chapter of the book highlights the utility of a simulation-based approach to improving PTW safety and discusses this method’s future applications. The case studies collected within the volume cover phases of the design of conspicuity treatments and provide a broad spectrum of empirical strategies for assessing the interventions. The book is most directly relevant to researchers and applied scientists from the fields of traffic/transportation psychology and human factors, as well as to practitioners from the traffic safety sector.
