DEVICE FOR WARNING A DRIVER OF A VEHICLE ABOUT APPROACHING A RAILROAD CROSSING

摘要

The proposed device for warning a driver of a vehicle about approaching a railroad crossing contains a radio radiation source, a radio radiation receiver, a sound indicator, a light indicator, and a distance meter. The radio radiation source is placed in a strong casing that is installed at the railroad crossing. The directional pattern of the radio radiation source overlaps the road areas that are located on both the sides of the crossing. The radio radiation receiver is installed in the vehicle. The proposed device provides a possibility to enhance traffic safety.
