Emerging automated vehicle (AV) technologies are being increasingly deployed around the world, but the lack of empirical data makes it difficult to predict the resulting changes. Adaptive cruise control vehicles are common in the market and can help fill this data gap.
Emerging automated vehicle (AV) technologies are increasingly being deployed around the world and it is only a matter of time before the transportation landscape changes dramatically. Unfortunately, those changes cannot be well predicted due to the lack of empirical data. But adaptive cruise control (ACC) vehicles are common in the market and can be used to fill this gap. In this paper, we aim to characterize the empirical car-following behaviors of a commercial ACC system and understand how ACC behaves in different conditions and the underlying impact mechanism. It is found that for a single ACC: (i) the ACC response time is comparable to human drivers but much larger than the ACC controller time gap and it exhibits small variance, (ii) the ACC response can amplify or dampen an oscillation, (iii) after the oscillation, the stabilization process can exhibit overshooting or undershooting, and (iv) these CF behaviors depend largely on the ACC headway setting, speed level, and leader stimulus, which produce the impacts directly and/or indirectly through the mediation of earlier ACC behaviors. For a three-vehicle platoon, our main finding is that the change from one ACC vehicle to the next is progressive for oscillation growth, and regressive for deceleration, acceleration, and overshooting. This implies that in long platoons, oscillation amplitude tends to exacerbate very quickly, which forces ACC vehicles further upstream to apply very strong braking followed by a strong acceleration. This can cause significant overshooting and safety hazards. (c) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
