Abstract: |
Much research has been conducted
on trying to solve traffic problems and applied successfully in many
developed countries where the car is the main transport mode. However, it has
not been effective in most developing countries where the motorbike, rather
than the car, is the main transport vehicle. This paper estimates the
passenger car equivalent of motorbikes under simulation analysis. Simulation
scenarios are constructed and run, and the results are analyzed to determine
that factor. The research shows that the passenger car equivalent of
motorbikes depends on traffic conditions. The factor is expected as a useful
parameter when applying traffic research in developing countries. |
