A project to simulate traffic jams in a one-dimensional traffic lane.

A friend, who is a mathematics teacher for high school students, asked if I could create a simple traffic model which exhibits typical traffic jams.

The simulation should be easily usable by people without programming experience. The simulation should provide a means of the behaviour of the traffic by specifying the indiviual responses of the cars.
