Hallo Jakob,

I understand "apparentDecel ' attribute applies to the truck and the effect is 
that the vehicles following this truck will keep a greater distance.


Does "when the truck is standing" mean that when the truck is traveling at a 
constant speed, the usual min-gap applies because there is no apparent 
deceleration?


Thank you

François

You could accomplish this by updating minGap with TraCI but there are no 
provisions in the models / xml inputs to configure this directly.

The closest thing you could get is to set a high value of 'apparentDecel' for 
the trucks which would make following traffic maintain higher gaps. However, 
the achieved gap increase would vary according to the speed of the truck (so 
you would not see a gap of 60 when the truck is standing). You should be able 
to tune this so that you see 60m gaps when a truck is driving at it's desired 
travel speed.

Adding a new carFollowModel that inherits from an existing model and provides 
additional minGaps would be another solution.

regards,
Jakob

Hello,

A HandBook from the Government of New Brunswick (Province of Canada) advises 
motorists not to follow a semi-trailer truck within 60 meters because of the 
blind spot.


It seems reasonable and I was wondering if it is possible to provide a 
different min-gap for a vehicle when it follows a truck on a higway ?

Thank you
