Researchers have developed a new jam-absorption driving strategy inspired by police car swerving maneuvers to mitigate stop-and-go traffic waves. This strategy, termed Single-Vehicle Double-Detector Jam-Absorption Driving (SD-JAD), aims to suppress traffic congestion by having a dedicated vehicle perform "slow-in" and "fast-out" actions. The proposed method is designed for practical implementation, utilizing only two roadside detectors to measure key parameters and has demonstrated success in simulations without causing secondary waves.
