What is "wrong-way concurrency"?
Wrong-way concurrency refers to a situation where a driver enters a road or highway in the opposite direction of traffic flow, typically by mistake. This can occur when a driver takes an incorrect exit or is confused by road signs or unfamiliar routes. It is a dangerous situation because it can lead to head-on collisions, which are often more serious due to the speed of both vehicles. Drivers must pay close attention to road signs and markings to avoid entering the wrong direction.
Example
Authorities install barriers and signage to prevent wrong-way concurrency on highways and major roads.
Wrong-way concurrency incidents often result in head-on collisions and are a significant concern for traffic safety.
