FATAL TRAFFIC CRASH FACTOR: PEAK TRAFFIC HOURS <br /> Peak traffic hours are the periods of time where the majority of commuters are on the roads, <br /> resulting in higher traffic volumes and congestion. During these periods, more vehicles are on <br /> the road, however motor vehicle speeds are typically slower due to congestion. Details on the <br /> time of day of the fatal traffic crashes shows that the highest number of crashes occurred <br /> outside of peak traffic hours, specifically between 1-4 pm and 7-10 pm (see Figure 15). <br /> Map 7 identifies the location of fatal traffic crashes that occurred during the AM and PM peak <br /> periods. Communities of concern, roadway ownership, and the location of available police <br /> stations and hospitals have been delineated as well. <br /> IGURE 15.
