An Improved Car-Following Model considering Desired Safety Distance and Heterogeneity of Driver’s Sensitivity

We investigate the dynamic performance of traffic flow using a modified optimal velocity car-following model. In the car-following scenarios, the following vehicle must continuously adjust the following distance to the preceding vehicle in real time. A new optimal velocity function incorporating the...
