I think I misspoke.
I understand that "apparentDecel" only applies when the truck is decelerating. In other words, if the truck is traveling at a constant speed, it is not decelerating and therefore the min-gap applies as usual. And when the truck is standing means that it is immobilized, so it is also the usual min-gap that applies. Is it that?

Vehicles using the Krauss-model will keep a gap that allows safe braking in case the leader vehicle brakes with apparentDecel (even though the leader will in fact only brake with its 'decel' value). If apparentDecel is higher than decel, vehicles will keep a larger gap then they would otherwise. That gap increases depending on the speed of the truck. Only when the truck is standing, it's decel or apparent decel plays no role since it obvious cannot brake anymore. Am Di., 23.

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 Am Mo., 22.

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 ?
