    public abstract class AbstractHeadwayCopy
extends AbstractHeadway
    Container for a reference to information about a (lane based) GTU and a headway. The Headway can store information about GTUs or objects ahead of the reference GTU, behind the reference GTU, or (partially) parallel to the reference GTU. In addition to the (perceived) headway, several other pieces of information can be stored, such as (perceived) speed, (perceived) acceleration, (perceived) turn indicators, and (perceived) braking lights.
    Special care must be taken in curves when perceiving headway of a GTU or object on an adjacent lane.The question is whether we perceive the parallel or ahead/behind based on a line perpendicular to the front/back of the GTU (rectangular), or perpendicular to the center line of the lane (wedge-shaped in case of a curve). The difficulty of a wedge-shaped situation is that reciprocity might be violated: in case of a clothoid, for instance, it is not sure that the point on the center line when projected from lane 1 to lane 2 is the same as the projection from lane 2 to lane 1. The same holds for shapes with sharp bends. Therefore, algorithms implementing headway should only project the reference point of the reference GTU on the center line of the adjacent lane, and then calculate the forward position and backward position on the adjacent lane based on the reference point. Still, our human perception of what is parallel and what not, is not reflected by fractional positions. See examples in http://simulation.tudelft.nl:8085/browse/OTS-113.
