Assessment of freeway traffic parameters leading to lane-change related collisions.
This study aims at 'predicting' the occurrence of lane-change related freeway crashes using the traffic surveillance data collected from a pair of dual loop detectors. The approach adopted here involves developing classification models using the historical crash data and corresponding information on real-time traffic parameters obtained from loop detectors. The historical crash and loop detecto...
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 کاملModeling 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 کاملInvestigation and Identification of Human Factors Related to Traffic Accidents leading to injury or Death in Yazd City
Introduction: Traffic accidents are a major problem in the field of transportation in Iran. To address this problem, detailed studies are needed especially over the impact of human risk factors. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the aim of identifying and recognizing the human characteristics associated with the occurrence of traffic accidents resulting in injury or death in the c...
متن کاملMacroscopic Modeling of Managed Lane-Freeway Networks
We propose a macroscopic modeling framework for networks of freeways equipped with managed lanes. Two types of managed lane configuration are considered: full-access, where vehicles can switch between the general purpose (GP) and the managed lanes anywhere; and separated, where such switching is allowed only at certain locations called gates. The proposed framework is based on widely-used first...
