Abstract
A number of stochastic properties for a model of traffic flowing in a single lane are derived. The arrival process used is one which models (a) the bunching phenomenon of traffic and (b) the fact that vehicles have a spatial dimension and travel at minimum temporal spacing. Weak assumptions about the desired speeds of vehicles are made.Keywords
