Pedestrian
Every hour and a half a pedestrian is struck and killed in a traffic accident in the United States. As pedestrian fatalities continue to rise, turn to TAPCO to increase pedestrian crosswalk safety in your community, parking lots and school zones.
School Zone
Slowing down and alerting drivers of children in school zones is imperative in keeping school zones safe, as more than 25,000 children sustain injuries as a result of school zone accidents.
TAPCO offers a wide-range of solar-powered school zone enhancements – Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacons, Solar School Speed Limit BlinkerSign®, Solar School Crossing BlinkerSign®, Flashing LED Beacons and more – to increase school zone safety.
Intersection
Is there a dangerous intersection in your community? Are static stop signs being ignored by careless drivers? Grab the attention of every driver with LED-enhanced BlinkerStop®, BlinkerSign® and BlinkerPaddle®
Curve
Horizontal curves account for 25 percent of all highways deaths in the United States, with the root cause being in-curve speeding and unfamiliar driver error.
Give drivers advanced warning and in-curve guidance with the TAPCO Dynamic Curve Warning System – proven to reduce vehicle speeds and crash rates by the Federal Highway Administration.
Emergency
Emergency crews deserve safe, ready access to streets adjacent to their fire house or emergency vehicle location. The egress onto the street or highway may pose visibility challenges (such as curves and obstructions), or the posted speeds may warrant an added warning. Speeders and distracted drivers only compound the problem.
Emergency Vehicle Flashing BlinkerSign® and BlinkerBeacon™ provide a high-visibility advance warning to drivers approaching the emergency vehicle station egress or ingress. The BlinkerSign® can be wirelessly activated from multiple methods, including a push-button in the vehicle station or remote activation key fobs in emergency vehicles.
- SolarPowered, No AC Power Required
- Easy Installation
- MUTCD Compliant
- Remote Activation Available
Parking
Parking lots remain one of the most dangerous pedestrian conflict areas in United States with more than 50,000 crashes and 500 deaths occurring the every year.
TAPCO’s line of solar-powered BlinkerSign® LED-enhanced signs increase visibility at high-risk parking lot intersections decreasing accidents for many businesses and parking facilities.
Speed
Every community has notorious speeding areas where careless drivers put everyone around at risk.
When static signs aren’t controlling speeders, TAPCO provides proven solutions – Speed Limit LED BlinkerSign and Radar Feedback Signs – that reduce vehicle speeds in school zones, on local roads and corporate campuses.
Industrial
Facility safety means ensuring every worker and visitor gets home safe. What safety measures are you taking to ensure pedestrians and drivers leave your facility unharmed?
TAPCO fabricates custom LED-enhanced signs to help increase safety at high-risk industrial conflict areas. Whether you need to provide indoor or outdoor warning enhancements, most facilities and campuses turn to TAPCO when improvements are needed.
Railroad
Flashing LED railroad crossing signs alerts the attention of a driver. Whether right at the track with LED Stop signs and crossbucks, or advance warning W10-1 railroad and Do Not Stop on Track signs, TAPCO BlinkerSign gives a dangerous railroad crossing the necessary warning it deserves.
Wrong Way
Wrong-way driving leads to the most feared traffic accident, the head-on collision – oftentimes caused by drunk drivers who keep their eyes down on the road without paying attention to their surroundings.
In fact, about 60 percent of wrong-way drivers have alcohol in their system at the time of impact. Standard traffic signs are not grabbing the attention of these impaired drivers. That’s where TAPCO’s Wrong-Way Driver Detection System steps in.
Weather
Weather conditions can change in an instant, leaving you little time to properly warn motorists of poor driving conditions. Don’t leave safety to chance. Send immediate notification with TAPCO solar-powered LED-enhanced BlinkerSign® Weather Warning Systems.
Independent of the power grid, BlinkerSign® Weather Warning Systems can be trigged the second driving conditions become dangerous.
Wildlife
Nationally, there are more than a million wildlife vehicle collisions every year, according to Washington-based Defenders of Wildlife. More than 200 of those accidents result in human fatalities. BlinkerSign® Wildlife Warning systems can be designed with sensors to sense movement from any large animal, such as bears, deer, elk, caribou and moose. Flashing LED lights warn drivers in areas where large animal crossing is heavy and prevalent. LED lights are extremely bright, properly alerting drivers during the day and at night. The signs can flash 24 hours a day, can be turned on manually via a toggle switch or key fob, set for dusk-to-dawn or desired intervals, including migration periods. Can be programmed with BlinkLink™ Web-based Traffic Device Monitor & Control (see facing page), saving trips to the system location for diagnostics or programming.
