Abstract
This study assessed the impacts of a toll information sign with different toll lane configurations on queue length and collision risk at a toll plaza with an estimated high percentage of heavy vehicles (HVs). The toll information sign displays information about different toll payment methods for cars and HVs upstream of the toll booth. The impacts were assessed for the toll plaza of the Gordie Howe International Bridge under construction at the Windsor–Detroit international border crossing using a traffic simulation model. Results show that the toll information sign upstream of the toll plaza and converting the toll lanes with multiple toll payment methods to electronic toll collection (ETC)-only lanes reduced queue length and collision risk. However, increasing the number of HV-only lanes for a higher percentage of HVs increased lane-change collision risk. Thus, it is recommended that toll lane configurations be changed based on the percentage of HVs to reduce collision risk at a toll plaza.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
