Abstract:

This article presents a short description of mathematical driver models. In the literature,
there are no models that are generally considered fully satisfactory for use in analysing drivers’
behaviour in emergencies. This paper presents a concept of model, which includes two sub-models
related to the driver’s defensive manoeuvres—avoiding the obstacle and braking. This article de-
scribes a model used for a simple road situation—a single obstacle (pedestrian) appearing on the
road in front of the vehicle. In the model, the method of artificial potential fields was used, but it
was enriched with the concept of safety zones around the vehicle and obstacles for three variants of
the proposed shape, namely a rectangle, a circle, and an ellipse. In the simulations, parameters im-
portant for the model’s operation were used. The proposed model can be used for the simulation of
human behaviour in specialised programs for accident reconstruction and in the future in assistant
systems.
