Abstract: Summary Using vehicle trajectories for a motorway collected from a helicopter, and a newly developed approach to parameter identification, this paper provides new empirical evidence of multi-anticipative car-following by estimating the driver-specific parameters of the different multi-anticipative car-following models. We investigate the nature of the multi-leader stimuli, providing insight into the number of vehicles ahead to which drivers react and the kind of stimuli drivers respond to. The paper also shows that there is large inter-driver variability in multi-leader driving behavior. The implications of our research findings for microscopic modeling are discussed as well.
