Road intel

Grey spots3 of 3 segments

Segments where curvature is tighter than the posted speed limit. Geometry alone flags these as higher risk, no crash history required.

Wet riskElevated

Average wet sensitivity across segments, based on surface, drainage, gradient and local rainfall.

Night riskPresent

Visibility at night across the road, weighted by lighting, tree canopy density and curves.

Wind exposureModerate

Average wind exposure across segments, based on measured wind speed, terrain and shelter. Relevant for motorcycles and caravans.

Sun glarePresent

East-west segments exposed to sunrise and sunset glare, adjusted for tree cover.

Storico incidenti

Aggregato su 3 tratti

Zone grigie

Il collegamento dei registri incidenti non è ancora disponibile per QLD. Le zone grigie sono tratti dove la geometria di curvatura non corrisponde al limite di velocità - vengono segnalate indipendentemente dallo storico incidenti.
