'Robot cars' are cars that allow for automated driving. They can drive closer together than human driven 'normal cars …', and thereby raise road capacity. Obtaining a robot car instead of a normal car can also be expected to lower the user … robot car users, the VOT is therefore (more strongly) heterogeneous. We study the effect of robot cars on social welfare for …

‘Robot cars' are cars that allow for automated driving. By allowing cars to safely drive closer together than human … driven ‘normal cars' do, robot cars raise road capacity. By allowing drivers to perform other activities in the vehicle, they … lower the value of travel time delays (VOT). We investigate the social welfare effect of robot cars using a dynamic …

This paper provides a link between car following theory and the economic theoryof road congestion by means of a theory … of speed choice. According to this theory speedchoice is based on a trade-off between the benefits (shorter travel time … elaborating this relationship a number of car-following models can be derived fromthis theory of speed choice.

This paper presents a dynamic model of road traffic congestion based on simple carfollowing theory, allowing for finite …’s dynamic model of bottleneck congestion. Therefore, the model presented here offers an integration and a generalization of …
