Figure 2. Illustration. This illustration shows how a driver makes a gap acceptance decision. In the illustration, vehicle C has chosen the left-most lane as the target lane primarily because it is less congested than the other two lanes (based on calculations from the FLS algorithm) and is now determining whether the adjacent gap between vehicles A and B is acceptable to make a lane change maneuver. This illustration shows three lanes of freeway traffic with numerous vehicles in each lane. A vehicle in the right-most lane is labeled as vehicle C, and two consecutive vehicles in the middle lane are labeled as vehicles A and B. No other vehicles are labeled. Vehicle C is positioned in between vehicles A and B. There is a line pointing to the back of vehicle A and another line pointing to the front of vehicle B. The distance between these two lines is labeled as “Adjacent Gap”.  In the illustration, vehicle C intends to change lanes to the middle lane and is determining whether the Adjacent Gap is acceptable.
