Abstract

A semi-empirical model of traffic flow on highways is introduced. This consists of the distribution of desired speeds for the cars entering the road and of the passing frequencies from queues going various speeds as function of the number of cars crossing a fixed point in unit time. Equations are derived giving the time evoution of all relevant probabilities.
