A state transportation agency want to evaluate engineering countermeasures applied to a two-lane,two-way rural highway segment.This 4 miles segment has been identified as having 14,19,and 23 total crashes in the last three years,before the implementation of the countermeasures.The AADT at the segment for last three years is 5630 vehicles per day and the AADT for after implementation is 6240 vehicles per day.Compute the expected average crash frequency for the after period, assuming the treatment was not implemented.The segment has the same conditions as the base conditions established for SPF.
