Hi All,

I'd like to implement some sort of repeatable congestion / traffic wave 
scenario. I've created a decent volume of background traffic using flows. If a 
vehicle now brakes suddenly or moves lanes suddenly (typical cases I can think 
of which seem to start ripple waves) should/would this impact the flow of the 
rest of the vehicles?

I'm guessing this sort of scenario might have already been implemented a few 
times so any pointers welcome.

Also, any best practise for measuring the impact? At the moment ive placed 5 
detectors along the route which give a measure of vehicle speed, so in 
congestion I'd expect this to drop. I guess time between detections x detected 
speed would indicate vehicles gap (assuming no lane change), small gap 
indicating congestion?

Again, any suggestions welcome

Thanks!
