14-5D-3: VISION TRIANGLES:

The dimensions of vision triangles are determined as follows: (See also figure 5D.1, located at the end of this section.)

   A.   At the intersection of two (2) local streets, a local street with a collector street, or two (2) collector streets, the legs of the vision triangle will be thirty feet (30') in length, as measured along the curb line from the point where the curbs of the two (2) streets intersect. In the absence of a curb, the legs of the triangle will be thirty feet (30') in length, as measured along the edge of the street pavement from the point where the pavement of the two (2) streets intersect.

   B.   At the intersection of two (2) arterial streets, the legs of the triangle will be thirty feet (30') in length, as measured along the right of way line from the point the right of way lines of the two (2) streets intersect.

   C.   At the intersection of a local street with an arterial or at the intersection of a collector street with an arterial, the local or collector leg of the triangle will be thirty feet (30') in length, as measured along the curb line from the point where the curbs of the streets intersect. The arterial leg of the triangle will be thirty feet (30') in length, as measured along the right of way line from the point the right of way lines of the two (2) streets intersect.
