A Data-Driven Comparison of Car-Following Behaviors of Autonomous and Human-Driven Vehicles and Their Traffic Flow Impacts Under Naturalistic Traffic Conditions brochure

Key Points

• Traffic flow is influenced by the characteristics of car-following models in both autonomous and human-driven vehicles.
• Examination of safety performance and mobility performance reveals key differences in driving behaviors.
• Assessment using microscopic simulation provides insights into traffic system design and potential improvements.
• Impacts on traffic flow illustrate the need for understanding interactions between autonomous and human-driven vehicles.
