Abstract

A microscopic traffic simulator called STREET which evaluates the effectiveness to reduce traffic accidents by safety systems has been developed. The STREET simulates the behavior of drivers and traffic accidents caused by driver's error. We are proposing a detailed driver model which includes a cognition, a decision-making, and a operation behaviors. In cognition process, drivers recognize surrounding environment of vehicle affected by driver's characteristics which are described by combining the four typical parameters. And they decide the most appropriate driving maneuver affected by driver's characteristics accordingly. This decision model is easy to extend into complex conditions only by accumulating rules for each object.
