DKI Highway is a high-speed facility with some sections posted at 60 mph. … The route is not meant to support high volumes of vehicles parking on the highway and its shoulders
Word Problem 1A:
If parking is not allowed on a 60 mph highway with the attractive nuisance of a lava flow visible from the roadway, will drivers not travel on that highway because of the parking restrictions?
2B:
If a driver from Kona heads east at 60 mph, and a driver from Hilo heads west at 60 mph because they both would like to see what has been described as an “historic once in a lifetime event” unfolding on a mountain to their south, what is the effective impact speed from a head on collusion when they are not allowed to safely pull off the roadway and instead look away from the road at an angle of 90 degrees?
A: 60 mph
B: 120 mph
create a "lava viewing area"...
Word Problem 2:
Without a designated lava viewing area, will drivers from Hilo all find a HDOT designed and approved turn around roadway after they have viewed the lava at 60 mph, or will they choose an infinite number of potential U turn areas along the highway, constantly surprising other drivers that they would pick hills, curves, private gated roads, and other unexpected locations where they will attempt to reverse course back to Hilo?
A: Drivers will safely choose previously designed and HDOT approved highway exits, which did not take into account a Mauna Loa lava flow visible from the roadway
B: Anyplace individual drivers feel is a “good spot.”
