Modeling Freeway Lane Changing Behavior
Drivers continuously evaluate the surrounding traffic and the roadway environment, and make decisions about lanes and travel speed. The objective of this thesis is to develop a lane changing model that can be used in microscopic traffic simulation models to capture drivers' lane changing behavior. Lane change is modeled as a sequence of four steps: decision to consider a lane change, choice of ...
متن کاملNecessity Analysis of inside Shoulder for Multi-lane Freeway
By the end of 2014, the total mileages of freeway in China have reached 112,000 kilometers, ranking the first in the world. Most of freeways are four-lane or six-lane, for which inside shoulder is not required by current Chinese guidelines. The inside shoulder is designed to reduce the possibility of fatal traffic accidents on freeways. In China, “Technical Standard of Highway Engineering” regu...
متن کاملEstimating Driver Mandatory Lane Change Behavior on a Multi-lane Freeway
The driver gap acceptance and rejection behavior during mandatory lane changes on a multilane freeway are analyzed in this paper. Gaps are accepted or rejected based on comparison with a minimum value generally defined as the critical gaps. Critical gaps are estimated based on the accepted and rejected gaps observed in the field. Driver behavior can be classified as consistent or inconsistent o...
متن کاملCollision avoidance analysis for lane changing and merging
One of the riskiest maneuvers that a driver has to perform in a conventional highway system is to merge into the traffic and/or to perform a lane changing maneuver. Lane changing/merging collisions are responsible for one-tenth of all crash-caused traffic delays often resulting in congestion. Traffic delays and congestion, in general, increase travel time and have a negative economic impact. In...
متن کاملCollision Avoidance Analysis for Lane Changing and Merging 1
In this paper, we analyze the kinematics of the vehicles involved in a lane changing/merging maneuver, and study the conditions under which lane changing/merging crashes can be avoided. That is, given a particular lane change/merge scenario, we calculate the minimum longitudinal spacing which the vehicles involved should initially have so that no collision, of any type, takes place during the m...
