Particle-hopping Models of Vehicular Traffic: Distributions of Distance Headways and Distance Between Jams

We calculate the distribution of the distance headways (i.e., the instantaneous gap between successive vehicles) as well as the distribution of instantaneous distance between successive jams in the Nagel-Schreckenberg (NS) model of vehicular traffic. When the maximum allowed speed, $V_{max}$, of the...
