> in Austria: ~100 accidents at LX a year (-30% since 2000) with ~20 deaths/yr.
(to compare with road overall: ~35000 accidents/yr., ~550 deaths a yr.)

I have seen the red light and I have driven on. I thought, I will make it.

Report of the Austrian Audit Office: within one week more than 1000 times a half-barrier showing red light was passed, also when the police was present
Initial situation: nationale and internationale experiences (e.g. ELCF) show, that accidents on Level Crossings are caused by road drivers between 95-98% objective: Examine the acceptance of red light road signal at LX with an empirical survey results: shall set up a background-knowledge to optimise the preset time and therefore to help to reduce abnormal behaviour of road users
> General concept: computer test with video sequences and stretched waiting time:
191-374 sec. instead of 28-319 sec.
> selection of five LX with road signal, one half- and full barrier (videos from both sides) > 80 persons did the testing, with idependent variables: - sex: 41 of them female - age: from 18-81 - licence ownership: e.g. more than 10 years: 69% - frequency of car using: e.g. four to seven times a week: 31%
