Runway safety is a significant challenge and a top priority
for everyone in aviation. In the United States, an average of
three runway incursions occur daily. Each of these incidents
have the potential to cause significant damage to both persons
and property. Runway incursions are a serious safety concern
and have involved air carrier aircraft, military aircraft, general
aviation (GA), and pedestrian vehicles. [Figure 1-1] Several
runway incursions have resulted in collisions and fatalities.
Fatalities have occurred at both towered and nontowered
airports. A few seconds of inattention can cause a runway
incursion.
