Abstract Median crossover crashes often result in fatalities or severe injuries to occupants of the errant vehicle and the motorists in the opposing traffic lanes. State departments of transportation are interested in reducing median crossover crashes through the use of median barriers. As an alternative to concrete and metal beam barriers, some States are turning to cable median barriers in areas where there is sufficient median width and a high potential for crashes.
