SimTraffic 7- Car refusing to turn in Simulation- Help!!
SimTraffic 7- Car refusing to turn in Simulation- Help!!
(OP)
I have a situation in SimTraffic where a car is not turning out of a channelized right turn pocket when the signal for the corresponding thru movement is green and there is no traffic blocking the car from turning. The car is just sitting there refusing to move even when it has a clear opportunity and it is creating a huge, unrealistic backup in my simulation. I have tried re-recording, recording with multiple runs, reseeding and re-recording with multiple runs, and I am still having the same issue on most of the runs.
Has anyone else experienced this issue or have any suggestions about how to resolve it?
Thanks, Kelli

In the Synchro "Lane Window" where you enter the intersection geometry you may need to enter a curb radius for the right turn lane.

This is so strange because the simulation runs fine for about an hour on most of the runs and then one car will hang up and refuse to turn.

Does Simtraffic give you any kind of error code at startup?
Is this a single intersection analysis, or a network?
If it is a network, the downstream geometry may be too short if the vehicle needs to make a lane change.
Is the movement controlled by the signal or free?
Is it a passenger car or another type vehicle that hangs?
Is this a pocket lane or a channelized right?
Does increasing the corner radius change the result?
