abstract="This study evaluated the effects of adaptive cruise control (ACC) on traffic flow using a microscopic traffic simulation on an actual freeway corridor, where traffic congestion was observed due to a traffic accident. Four types of ACCs were evaluated to determine their effect on travel time reduction given the low percentage of ACC equipped vehicles. A small numerical example showed that travel times could be significantly reduced only when the ACC is activated for almost all speed ranges and at least 20% of the vehicles are equipped with ACCs.<p />",
