History Created in Detroit, Michigan in 1915 • Automobiles outdoing horse and buggies • Early signs were the word “stop” in black on a white piece of metal • Sign to get people to think twice before crossing • Became a more serious sign in the flow of traffic
History • Yellow octagon with black letters • Later changed to red • Used worldwide except in Japan • Only octagon shaped sign on the highway • Must stop and wait for all the intersection to clear
Topic Determine community safety • Determine gender differences abiding by the traffic laws • Look at age affects
Data Collection Stop sign into South student parking lot from Bristol Road • Stop sign in front South parking lot by flag pole • Stop sign in front of Giant on Rt. 202 • Stop sign in front of Toys ‘R Us on Rt. 309 • Divided our data into ½ second intervals
5-Number Summary Min = 0 Q1 = 0 Median = 0.28 Q3 = 1.14 Max = 4.13 Mean = .70385 Std Dev = .9127

1 Sample t - Test t- Test t = -34.857 P(t < -34.857 | df = 191) = 0 ConclusionWe reject Ho in favor of Ha because p-value of 0 < α = 0.05. We have sufficient evidence that the mean time for stopping is less than 3 seconds.
1 Sample t - Test 95% Confidence Interval * = (.57392, .83379) ConclusionWe are 95% confident that the mean time for stopping is between .57392 and .83379 seconds.
X² Test of association Assumptions2 independent SRSSample size large enough so all expected counts ≥ 5 Assumedexp counts ≥ 5 X HypothesesHo: There is no association between gender and the time stopped Ha: There is an association between gender and the time stopped
X² Test of association X² - Test X² = 5.739 P(X²> 5.739 | df = 8) = .6764 ConclusionWe fail to reject Ho because our p-value of .6764 > α = 0.05. We have sufficient evidence that there is no association between gender and the time stopped.

2 Proportion z - Test z - Test z = .67619 P(z > .67619) = .2495 ConclusionWe fail to reject Ho in favor of Ha because p-value of .2495 > α = 0.05. We have sufficient evidence that the proportion of males that stop is equal to the proportion of females that stop.
2 Proportion z - Test 95% Confidence Interval < < < < < < = (-.0926, .19062) ConclusionWe are 95% confident that the difference in proportion of males and females that don’t stop at stop signs is between -.0926 and .19062.
Personal Opinions • South needs to be more aware of safety • Saving a life is more important • Watch for pedestrians • One should always stay on their side of the road
