Dear Sirs,

My name is Judhakitt and I am studying post-master in ITS at Eurecom, France.
I have been working on impact of motorcycle mobility by using SUMO in  
the past 4 months and supervised by Prof. Jerome Härri.
At the moment, in my semester project (duration March-June 2014), the  
objective is to model the motorcycle mobility in SUMO and would like  
to ask you for suggestions.

(Remark: "overtaking vehicle" in this case means motorcycle)

Q1) Is it possible to put more than one vehicle (for example vehicle  
type is motorcycle, half-width, and length of passenger car) in the  
same lane at the same time?
Some research papers show that up to 3 motorcycles can be on the same  
lane at the same time  in the real world. What I have tried to model  
before was to create virtual sub-lane only for motorcycle (cars are  
not allowed), and another lane for car and motorcycle. However there  
can just only be 2 motorcycles at the same position (one in sub-lane,  
and one car/or one motorcycle in the normal lane).

Q2) Are there any possibility to let vehicle on left lane to overtake  
on the right lane?
I have noticed that a vehicle cannot overtake on the right side. For  
example there are 2 lanes on the same direction (called left and right  
lane). If one vehicle suddenly stops on the left lane, the following  
vehicles are stopping and queuing up, but they do not overtake to the  
right.
I discuss with Prof. Härri and he told me that SUMO blocks this by  
law. There should be some part in source code that allows vehicle to  
overtake on the right side.

Q3) Why a vehicle stops at a static obstacle, without simple  
overtaking continuously?
For example, there are 2 lanes, right and left. A car (or any vehicle)  
stops on the right lane for long time. (In this case, vehicles are  
allowed to overtake, not blocking by low). When the following vehicles  
approaching to this stopping car, they are stopping before trying to  
overtake. I try to simulate in different scenario with different  
speed, acceleration, but I never make the following vehicles overtake  
suddenly, continuously without stopping after the stopping car.


Please kindly feedback or let me know if you need anything from my side.


Best Regards,


Judhakitt
