Abstract

In this paper a comprehensive microscopic model of driver behavior in uninterrupted traffic flow is developed. The model aims to explain or predict the actions of a driver in a variety of driving scenarios ranging from free flow conditions on wide roads to forced flow conditions on narrow two-way roads. The salient features of the proposed theory are (1) a single model (or framework) is used to describe driver behavior in different driving scenarios and (2) the response of drivers through both steering control and speed control are modeled. Driver behavior is simulated in 19 different driving scenarios. Results from these simulations show the efficacy of the proposed model in explaining/predicting driver behavior.
