from the ramp to head
east on 1-40 must cross the
other way.
The two most frequently
resulting accident situa-
tions are (1) cars stopping
suddenly at the end of the
ramp because of traffic,
causing rear-end collisions
and (2) the cross-weaving
traffic in the stretch just
beyond the ramp, Hixon
said.
Peak traffic on the ramp
is only 404 cars per hour,
he said, but there is just
too much traffic at rush
hour to get the cars on.
