conflicts at an intersection are different for different types of intersection. Consider a typical four-legged intersection.

The number of conflicts for competing through movements are 4, while competing 

right turn and through movements are 8. The conflicts between right turn traffics are 

4, and between left turn and merging traffics 4. The conflicts created 

by pedestrians will be 8 taking into account all the four approaches. Diverging traffic also produces about 4 conflicts. Therefore, a typical four-

legged intersection has about 32 different types of conflicts.
