Package org.opentrafficsim.road.network.lane.changing Description

Lane change possibility models. This package codes lane change possibility models that indicate under what circumstances GTUs are allowed to change lane, and what lane keeping policies are in place. Examples of lane keeping policies are "keep right", "keep left" or "keep lane". The infrastructure could allow to overtake on the left, but not on the right; often this is combines with allowing to pass another GTU on the right when the density is above a certain threshold, or the speed below a certain value. Otherwise, cars would not drive to a traffic light in parallel, because that would be considered overtaking on the right. There could also be details that differ per GTU type: on some stretches of highway, trucks are not allowed to overtake. Similarly, on secondary roads it is sometimes forbidden to overtake, except when the GTU in front is a tractor, or other vehicle with a lower speed limit. The models in this package should allow to code for these situations and indicate whether changing lane to the left or right is allowed, given the circumstances.
