The driver’s anticipation effect with passing in lattice model for two-lane freeway

In this paper, a new lattice model is proposed with the consideration of the driver’s anticipation effect with passing for two-lane traffic system. The linear stability condition and the mKdV equation which are correlative to the driver’s anticipation effect with passing are derived from linear stability analysis and nonlinear analysis, respectively. Numerical simulation shows that the driver’s anticipation effects with passing can efficiently enhance the stability of traffic flow under lane changing on two-lane highway.
